		<title>My First Cooking Class!!!!! (Part 1)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

On Valentine’s Day, I hosted my first cooking class for a couple, David and Amanda, who were visiting Austin for the weekend.

		<title>HAPPY VALENTINE&#8217;S DAY!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

For Valentine&#8217;s Day, I decided to do something elegant and beautiful but not in the vein of the traditional lover&#8217;s day treats.  I wanted to create something light,  joining the opposing forces of sweet and tart, presented on a bed of flakey crust that would pair seamlessly with a glass of champagne.

And after [...]]]></description>

For Giovanna&#8217;s Dill Macaroni Salad, at right, I chose the ever fabulous bionaturae organic gluten free pasta.  It hits the three bells of perfection for me because 1: they are gluten free, 2: they are organic, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Giovanna&#8217;s Dill Macaroni Salad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

My grandmother always had fresh dill growing in her garden in Iron Mountain, Michigan and as a result, she always had a dish on the dinner table that invariably incorporated this aromatic herb.  I was the youngest in a family of five children, and of my grandmother’s four children, three of them had a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Merula Olive Oil</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The Merula tin can is much better looking in person, but my scanner didn&#8217;t like the metal of it&#8230;

I recently bought this olive oil the other day at Sur La Table, first and foremost because of the blackbird on the can, but upon trying it, I will now be buying it for the product itself. [...]]]></description>
