		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s amazing how the last post was written in October 2011, but work has been crazy-busy. The first half of the year was really good, however, mostly focusing on the preparation and execution of my first garden. But my energy for writing was fading. Then I got really discouraged and pissed off at how the [...]]]></description>

This time, however, I found success! This time, I brushed plain soy milk on the formed dough and coated them in granulated sugar before baking. I got the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This thing looks fancy but it&#8217;s really easy if you&#8217;ve got prepared puffed pastry in the freezer. Besides having to think ahead to thaw the pastry, it makes for a fairly quick and light lunch option, or side. Leek &#038; tatsoi tart Serves 2 to 4 1/2 package of puff pastry, thawed 6 to 8 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oats are actually really good for you, being full of minerals and protein. Besides the occasional nourishing infusions of oat straw, I&#8217;m trying to incorporate more oats into my diet. Steel-cut oats to be exact. But who has 20+ minutes on weekday mornings to make this stuff? Check out The Bitten Word&#8217;s 10-minute solution. That&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve had to up the ante at work, got distracted by both my first vegetable garden and making medicines from my herb patch. Regardless, I decided to take on the challenge of VeganMofo this year, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Calendula officinalis. To some it&#8217;s a pretty flower to admire, to me it&#8217;s a powerful herbal medicine. I&#8217;ve only scratched the surface on medicating oneself herbally, but the stuff I&#8217;ve read about the benefits of Calendula are remarkable, especially in regards to the skin. After a lot of research, I had started 9 seedlings indoors [...]]]></description>

After much anticipation, the resulting bulbs were finally dug up during two weeks ago and have been drying ever since. I was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;ve been following me on Twitter, you&#8217;ll know that the large tomato plants suffered a bit damage caused by the recent wind and rain. They&#8217;re about 8 feet tall, caged in, what I realize now is, a rickety support structure of bamboo and chicken wire. Next year I&#8217;m going to up the game and [...]]]></description>
