		<title>Tis the Season to Celebrate Rhubarb!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a great Scone recipe from Bridget at The Way the Cookie Crumbles. It is presented here in rhubarb form but it could totally be adapted for cranberries or other tart fruits you should feel so inclined to include. Jordon and I went to the Newmarket Farmer&#8217;s Market this weekend and purchased some fresh [...]]]></description>

		<title>Groundhog&#8230; mmm, yummy!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Personal Note: The name of this dish was coined by my great grandfather who was teasing my mother by telling her that he had shot a groundhog for dinner.

		<title>Loring: Why &#8216;peace of mind&#8217; just doesn&#8217;t cut it</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Contemplative prayer takes us beyond the form of discursive prayer where we are talking to God and instead we simply (though seemingly impossibly for me right now) hold ourselves still with the intention of being with God.]]></description>

		<title>Otter Thompson: Investigating the Real</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It isn't necessarily that the world is an illusion, but our perceptions of the world are. We perceive the world through our own particular filters, interpreting the actions of others in a way that makes sense to us and confirms our world views.]]></description>

		<title>Smith: Honoring the Sacred Earth Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Whether you feel more comfortable celebrating or observing the seasons, sitting in Nature or working in your garden, or learning and developing a new artistic skill, this book had so much variety it would be very easy to find something that worked for you and begin to develop it as part of a deeper and more complete spiritual practice.]]></description>

		<title>Otter Thompson: Taking it slow</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It's too rich, too deep and too well-thought out to do anything but take it slowly, one chapter per day, perhaps, or even one per week. The exercises at the end of each chapter, and the realizations they inspire, deserve time in which to ruminate, to gestate, and to help the reader shift their reality.]]></description>

		<title>Otter Thompson: First Impressions</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Contacting that energy that is highest, whether we consider it to be within or outside of ourselves has, in my experience, the capacity to convey truths in a simple and profound way and I almost always enjoy the books that are written with this intention.]]></description>

		<title>Asking for Forgiveness</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If I don't believe in a God that judges, what right do I have to judge the actions of others as right and wrong. I can feel that they are acting in a manner that causes me to feel hurt, but can I truly say that they are wrong?]]></description>
