Good morning blogoverse. Have you had your coffee? I've never touch the stuff myself. Seriously. I prefer to get my caffeine fix from

Linda's Fudge Cake from the Cheesecake Factory. First time I shared this with my girls I slept less than 2 hours that night. Lesson learned.
Ever wonder why we get addicted to coffee and/or chocolate? Well, wonder no more! I just found out that caffeine has a chemical composition pretty much the same as cocaine at The Caffeine Conspiracy. But can you trust everything you read on the web? Gosh, I hope not because that post just informed me that decaffeinated green tea actually contains caffeine. The horror! The horror!

So if you hadn't guessed, my theme this year will be: A 26-step program to kick your caffeine habit. No, no, no, that would be silly. Society would collapse into a useless stupor. It's conspiracies. And controversies. There's plenty to choose from: classics like the JFK assassination and whether the moon landing was fake to more recent conundrums such as 9/11 being an inside job and vaccines (health boon or health nightmare?) It should be fun. Or terrifying. Maybe both.

This is my fifth go-round with this challenge, and frankly, I'm a little concerned about the whole toss-out-the-master-list deal. Will the poor schmoes (like me) who join in at comment 1,362 have any chance at snagging an audience? Is this some kind of conspiracy to jack up the comments on the master site? Hmm... Very suspicious, I say. VERY suspicious.
The fun starts on April 1. Are you ready? Have a conspiracy you'd like to learn more about?
Tamara, Interesting theme but the question is do I want to kick my caffeine addiction? Nah, I'm good where I am. No need to fix this gal. lol I'll certainly look for your posts. It will be an interesting topic to learn from if nothing else. I like broadening my thinking power. The way I understand the new A2Z link up is similar to any other blog hop, add your URL and if everyone plays along meaning to visit those either before or after their linkup then everybody should get a fair show of traffic on their sites. Of course, I'll be looking at the post titles that interest me, too. :) Have a good week, my friend, and I invite you to visit Curious as a Cathy for a little mewsic and learn about my AprilA2Z challenge theme reveal!
ReplyDeleteFun theme! The X-Files proved there are a lot of conspiracies.
ReplyDeleteSorry no list. I think people will be jumping around the comments though. And at least you know those you are visiting are actually participating.
I was wondering the same about my link getting lost. I am also posting my on Facebook.
ReplyDeleteNice to meet you! Love your theme. Twere I to confess, I'd say I didn't even want to kick my caffeine. I'll be checking in to see if you change my mind!
ReplyDeleteOh, conspiracy theories! You could do a blogging challenge for a decade and probably never run out of material. And starting with caffeine? For shame, for shame ... we're all in on the caffeine conspiracy!
ReplyDeleteI have no desire to kick my caffeine habit, so unless your program involves swapping caffeine for crack I'm not interested in your New Age hippy conspiracies. :-P
ReplyDelete(Seriously though, sounds like fun)
Stories I Found in the Closet
Hi name sister, nice to meet you! I have actually managed to quit drinking Coke Zero after a good 25 year long addiction! I still do coffee, though. In moderation, as they like to say ☕️

And, especially for you:

I just recently gave up Diet Coke! So hard to do, and for the 3rd time in the last 10 years. Hope this is the last time, though. Green tea, and flavored water my substitutes. I can't wait to see your advice!!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad the linky list is gone. :)
Ooh, conspiracies! I like it :) It is fascinating how people come up with them, and create the stories around them... modern folklore. Great theme!
ReplyDeleteBeing 1,362 in the comments will not be much different from being 1,362 on a sign up list, hopefully :) Plus with the comments, you get to snag a good place on the list every day all over again. ;)
The Multicolored Diary: WTF - Weird Things in Folktales
This is probably the year for conspiracies! Are you going to talk about Obama wiretapping Trump Towers? :).
ReplyDeleteWhy not?
DeleteNow this sounds like fun - and you're en vogue with your topic :)

Very topical! Glad you're leaving the caffeine kicking alone though...or aren't you? can't survive w/o the stuff! :-) See you in April!

I'm so glad coffee's not at expensive or dangerous as cocaine. I'm not sure what I'd do if it were. Just read that studies are coming up with the health benefits of caffeine. Thank heavens!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the AtoZ!
As an absolute caffeine addict I probably could have benefited from your first theme. ;)
ReplyDeleteOh, I love conspiracies, can't wait and good luck to you! Thanks for stopping by my site and checking out my theme this year, Dragons in Our Fandoms!

That fudge cake looks YUMMY! I love The Cheesecake Factory. So does it have caffeine in it or was it just the caffeine that's usually in chocolate that kept you up?
ReplyDeleteMy guess is the chocolate.
DeleteOh geez...I actually used to work at the Cheesecake Factory and as soon as I saw that picture I said "Oh hey, it's the fudge cake" before even reading anything.
ReplyDeleteConspiracies sounds like an interesting and fun theme!
love conspiracies :)
ReplyDeleteYou're right, the missing list is a conspiracy. Will you be addressing that in one of your posts?
ReplyDeleteI want a piece of that cake. Sorry I am a coffee addict. Looking for your fun posts.
ReplyDeleteSounds good to me!
ReplyDeleteI bet you had a lot of material to choose from! Looking forward to seeing your posts. And, I'm with you - chocolate over coffee any day. Weekends In Maine | Theme Reveal
ReplyDeleteYou've come up with such a creative idea! I can't wait to see what you come up with for X! :D I am totally addicted to caffeine - I drink coffee pretty much all day! That cake sure does make my mouth water...
ReplyDeleteOh this looks like fun! All the best with the challenge! And I don't think I'll be giving up coffee anytime soon myself :) - Louise
ReplyDeleteI had to drop caffeine cold turkey because of a newly diagnosed medical condition. Next week I believe I have a post scheduled about it.
ReplyDeleteI love conspiracies. They are so interesting. Looking forward to your posts.
Coffee is my morning miracle drug! Can't imagine ever giving it up. I like your real theme much better. ☺ Conspiracy theories are always fascinating. Looking forward to your posts!
ReplyDeleteDebbie @ The Doglady's Den
5th time....Wow!! Looking forward!
ReplyDeleteoh I thought you were really going to tell me about how to beat the caffeine habit :) There is a book blogger friend having a very hard time with it now
ReplyDeleteI love conspiracies! this sound fun. I'll think about a good one to participate :)
I was about to move away from your blog because I have no intention of giving up caffeine. Then I saw you were going to write about controversies. There's nothing I like better than a good controversy. Good luck with the theme and looking forward to reading.
ReplyDeleteTamara - you don't have an email sign up, do you? I've decided to follow the A to Z bloggers I really like so I don't scrabble around trying to find them every day in April when life is so frenetic as it is.
ReplyDeleteSorry, I don't have an email sign-up.
DeleteTamara, I'm all ears for conspiracies. Whether I believe them or not, they're always fun to read about, and to wonder, Maybe yes, maybe not.
ReplyDeleteCynthia at A Few Drops Of Ink
I've parted ways with coffee! And looking forward to reading all your conspiracy theories!
ReplyDeleteHow can decaffeinated green tea have caffeine? That just isn't right!
ReplyDeleteI like this theme. I'm always looking for conspiracies in everything. A to Z is probably a conspiracy, but I haven't figured it out yet.

I have to admit, I do enjoy the odd conspiracy. This'll be a fun theme to work with.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with it.

That sounds like such a great theme, Tamara! Though I won't be able to drop by every day, I'll do my best to keep up with your posts and cheer you on.
ReplyDeleteI love conspiracy theories!
I am a huge fan of conspiracy theories. I will be back to see what you have come up with for the challenge. It is a great theme.
ReplyDeleteYour theme sounds most entertaining :) I look forward to seeing which conspiracies and controversies you decide to highlight.
ReplyDeleteSorry for taking so long to return you visit, but I am still catching up after my hols.
