		<description><![CDATA[Silver Cloud - Bath Bomb: As the first bath bomb I have ever used, I enjoyed it a lot.  You simply start filling up the tub, then drop the bomb in the water and it will dissolve entirely.
Silver Cloud gave the water a light greenish color that was pretty and quite fragrant.  The [...]]]></description>

		<title>Easiest Budget Ever: Take Two</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I didn't always have a budget.  In fact, there was a point in time where I didn't need one.  In college, I had one monthly bill and one per semester bill.  I didn't have time to go out and didn't have the room to store things. I didn't have time to cook or to take on expensive hobbies.  Then. I graduated. I had more money, time, and interests.  Basically, now I have more bills.

I have went through tons and tons of different budgets.  I keep them flexible but every month I end up tweaking the layout, categories, and allotment.  The format I have stuck with the most is based on three categories: 1) Income, 2) Fixed Expenses, and 3) Variable Expenses.

		<title>Commute Log: Because Driving is Fun!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just trying to keep track of my morning commute.  Mainly to see how many hours I spend in my car and to observe daily traffic patterns.  In the evenings, I stop and run errands on my way home from work on most days so tracking that is unnecessary.
January is an odd month because [...]]]></description>

		<title>Delicious Tip: One Simple Way to Eat Healthier</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Olive Oil. Really.  It&#8217;s as simple as that.  Just use Olive Oil in cooking instead of butter/margarine/cooking sprays.  
Easy Examples:

Pasta: Instead of a buttery alfredo sauce, make a sauce out of olive oil, sauteed minced garlic and basil.

		<title>Useful Thing: FoodTube.net</title>

I was quite excited to see a couple bugs that I had noticed previously, are now fixed in beta!  Which mainly just had to do with pages that automatically refreshed themselves.  
All seems to be [...]]]></description>

		<title>Neat Thing: Lost In Translation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Carl Tashian has had this neat little website for quite a long time.  This little app basically &#8220;babelizes&#8221;, as he puts it, any english phrase you input, by then translating it back and forth between english and five different other languages.  
The result shows you not only the final translated sentence, but also [...]]]></description>
