Cheese!
Cheese is my absolute favorite thing to work with in the kitchen. It can be used on its own or added to almost anything to improve the taste. 9 times out of 10 if adding cheese to something doesn't improve the flavor then you need to rethink what it is you are making. Currently in my kitchen I am working with a super spicy 4 pepper blend cheese that I picked up from my local deli. It is much hotter then a pepper-jack.
The heat of the peppers blend nicely with the cheese.
I have included some history, info and recipes I thought were informative.

Winter beer heart of Darkness + pie recipe
Found a seasonal beer called heart of Darkness by Magic Hat. I gotta say it has a very unique taste.
It has a bitter/creamy chocolate taste. Not sludgy at all.
Pairs well with a chocolate cupcake.
I have been a huge fan of Magic Hat, especially their #9.
Defiantly worth a try for a seasonal/non pumpkin flavored beer.
More info here: heart_darkness

You leave your drink around me... + 50 elephants
50 out of a herd of 120 elephants tore up a small town to get a local beverage called Mahua. They drank over 100 gallons in just a few minutes while destroying the shop that made the drink.
Apparently these elephants are no strangers when it comes to getting crunk from this drink. The police called on the locals to help contain the elephants and escort them out of the town.
Stock up on those Twinkies! Dark Days Ahead
Many preppers and survivalists out there know the value of a food that lasts long and can survive terrible conditions. Twinkies are that food. Start stocking up on those little yellow creme filled cakes. Soon they will no longer be on the shelves at your local store. Twinkies is going under. Twinkies-Maker-Hostess-Going-Out-of-Business They are going under due to strikes and union workers. 
Don't cry, there is hope.Here is a recipe on how to make twinkies at home.

A few fools to spoil it for the rest of us
I would like to state that I am sorry for the loss of life where ever it takes place.
Now with that being said
I would mention that people should always exercise good judgement and try to live responsibly. If you are a parent this should go double for yourself, by being involved in your child's life and passing these things to them.
Last year a young girl died from "cardiac arrhythmia due to caffeine toxicity" after drinking two 24 oz cans of Monster Energy drink. The cans held a total of 475 mg caffeine.
This chart shows that she drank 6 servings back to back.I would ask, where were her parents at? Did they warn her not to drink caffeine drinks?
Did she intentionally not pay attention to the label?
The young girl had a preexisting heart condition, as well as Ehlers–Danlos syndrome. Why on earth would any parent let their child even think about caffeine drinks if this was the case? Last month her parents sued Monster. The Food and Drug Administration received 5 apparent deaths that possibly linked Monster.
I repeat it is sad. I think if better judgement were used by adults and children there would be much less of these accidents. Lets pay attention to labels and make wise choices. I will continue to drink monster and other caffeine drinks. I am an adult and will use my best judgement when consuming them. Lets not go on a witch hunt when its lack of personal responsibility to blame. Please lets not ban products because a few people want to abuse them. Live responsibly, educate yourselves and use some common sense. 
Spinach Recall
Try to avoid the stuff in general for a few weeks just to be safe.
16 cases of e.coli reported linked to Fresh Spinach. Wegmans recalled the Fresh Express 5oz and 11oz bags.

The Fresh Express company website is here. As of 7:27 am Thursday Nov. 8th 2012 I saw no mention of the recall in their news links. Nor in any obvious place.
They did a voluntary recall on their 9oz bags due to a salmonella positive result in
some of their testing on the 7th.

A Pantry Challenge
The Challenge is to use what you have stored up in your pantry to make interesting new dishes by clearing out some things that have been in the pantry taking up space.
If you have a sparse pantry then you might need to wait till its stocked up more.
But, if you have a bit of selection you might discover some favorite meals by mixing what you have to find some great creations. A can of spinach and some pasta shells go very well together.
It rests solely on your items in the pantry and your ingenuity to find things that will work.
To get you started, here are Some Ideas.
Good luck and please let us see what you have come up with.

A camping Stove that Charges phones?
Found this beauty today. It is a camping stove that can power USB devices.
From the reviews I have seen this is another must have product.
It is a campfire stove that burns small pieces of branches or sticks. As it gets hot, a fan blows and creates a cyclone. This airflow forces the fire to get hotter. This heat in turn gets turned into electric energy which charges your USB devices. Current prices I have seen are around $129. For something this functional it is well worth the price. Can be found here.
