		<title>Top Ten Reasons to Make Your Own Convenience Food Mixes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[1. They taste good. Duh. Isn&#8217;t that one reason why we pick up mixes at the store? Whether it&#8217;s a cake mix, a box of mac and cheese, or a box of elaborate cous cous with olive oil and garlic, you&#8217;d have to agree that if it didn&#8217;t taste good to someone in your house, [...]]]></description>

		<title>How to make vegetable broth</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love Trader Joe&#8217;s hearty vegetable broth. But with the nearest Trader Joe&#8217;s thousands of miles away, I figured it was high time to make my own vegetable broth. (Not to mention that I never, ever succeeded in using the entire aseptic container of broth at once and I had to freeze the remainder anyway!) [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ironing issues</title>
		<description><![CDATA[OK, so I have ironing issues.  I am on my second iron in, like, 3 months. The first one, which I&#8217;d had for 3 years (and I bought it second hand) started snagging our clothes. Instead of ironing smoothly, it started catching on these little dent thingys in the bottom of the iron, which is, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sack lunches save MY economy!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[DH and I have been trying an experiment. He has usually been eating lunches at the hospital cafeteria and just putting them on his ID and the money gets taken out of his paycheck. Somehow in the last few weeks, I convinced him that in order to start making headway on paying off our debts, [...]]]></description>

		<title>My new sea cow!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve become great friends with my new sea cow over the last few days. Well, it&#8217;s not really a sea cow. It&#8217;s my new recipe software, called YummySoup! (by Hungry Sea Cow software company). I bought it several months ago, but with Org Junkie&#8217;s month-long emphasis on recipe organization, I decided it was high time [...]]]></description>

		<title>My first recycling experience</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, this year I&#8217;m trying to go green, and that means I&#8217;m going to start recycling. I should give you a bit of history. I have been intending to recycle for quite awhile. Last week, I cleaned out a messy corner of my kitchen where I had been stacking all these bottles that I intended [...]]]></description>

		<title>My kitchen!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here are a couple pictures of my tiny kitchen/ dining area. Just so you know what I have to deal with. (These kitchens are meant for people who eat out all the time. I tell you.) My colors are dark green (kind of a dark lime green) and brown, I guess. I can&#8217;t paint anything [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Year&#8217;s goals&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have been contemplating what kinds of goals (er, resolutions &#8211; but I like calling them &#8220;goals&#8221; much better) to make this year and have come up with several. Journal at least once a week. (I used to be faithful at journaling, but I have been slacking ever since I moved to my current location.) [...]]]></description>
