		<title>Maybe I&#8217;m a bad parent, but&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;I like toys in my Happy Meals. Okay, not my Happy Meals, but the ones for my son. Um, okay, you&#8217;re thinking, that was random. Yes, and no. I just read this article about McDonald&#8217;s &#8220;revamp&#8221; of the Happy Meal, cutting fat &#38; calories by reducing the amount of fries &#38; including apples in all [...]]]></description>

		<title>An array of baking projects</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over the past year, I really stepped up my baking game. I even occasionally make a little money on it. Thought I&#8217;d post a few pictures of some of my recent favorite baking projects. A baby shower cake for my nephew. Complete with wee footprints pitter pattering around the cake, and onesies &#38; diapers in [...]]]></description>

		<title>A clearing of the throat, as it were</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Several weeks ago, I found myself sitting in on a fairly unhelpful agents and editors panel at a local literary conference. Which is not to say that the panel itself wasn&#8217;t helpful, it may well have been quite helpful to writers who aren&#8217;t poets &#38; therefore have a reason to directly communicate with agents &#38; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Eggless Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Friday morning, the snowy gray skies &#8212; the omen of yet another homebound day in so many weeks &#8212; inspired me to bake.  And such wintry weather made me immediately crave something pumkiny. Okay, I crave pumpkin treats all year round, but I think they are especially appropriate any time from say mid-September to late-February/early-March. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Chocolate Pretzel Krispy Treats</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Until recently, I severely undervalued the Rice Krispy Treat. Since it doesn&#8217;t require much time or technical prowess, I didn&#8217;t give it much thought. But in a quick pinch the classic Treat is an easy win. Actually, not long ago, I made two batches for a whole mess of house guests and found that I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Audio Issues</title>
		<description><![CDATA[argh! so, i just realized how painfully out of date i was (am?): apparently, the site that was hosting my audio files went belly up a year ago! whoops! and apparently they only notified the paying customers &#8211; not the folks that were hosting audio for free (because, you know, sending a mass email is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Wheaty Peachy Muffins (eggless)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Nothing makes you want to bake like being snowed in. Snow drifts pushing up into the house on all sides, wind blowing clumps of snow from the tree branches into the windows, and not even the mail delivery to make you feel connected to the outside world. (Yep, that&#8217;s right, they&#8217;re not even delivering mail [...]]]></description>

		<title>Postcards!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[They&#8217;re here! This week, I debuted my first set of poetry postcards/broadsides at my reading in Elkins Park. I designed four unique cards (4&#215;6 inches) featuring four different poems, using word art, images, and ink stamps. I&#8217;m really happy with how they came out, and people seemed to like them (they bought them!) so I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Breakin&#8217; out the bread machine</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Little Mister often wonders at my beloved bread machine. So rarely used, yet so fondly thought of. I usually crack out the bread machine about once a year, and yesterday was the day. With mountains of snow locking us in and the Little Mister&#8217;s beef stew in the crock pot, I decided to throw [...]]]></description>

		<title>Interesting publishing opp, and yet&#8230;.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, I was just flipping through my most recent issue of Poets &#38; Writers (a mag with which I&#8217;ve had a several years love/hate relationship), and I saw a little blurb about Madras Press. Madras is a new press that publishes stories in individually bound editions&#8230; so fiction writers don&#8217;t have to cut their stories [...]]]></description>
