		<title>Sweet Deceit</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Diet soda, anyone? Calories are not the biggest concern when sweet hits the palate. Science News has published some interesting new research.

		<title>Holidays and Beautiful Vegetables</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On a recent trip to the lovely Italian coast, my friend posed this question to local residents, “What do you spend your money on?” Their reply, “Holidays and beautiful vegetables.” Coincidentally, at about the same time another friend sent me a breakdown on U.S. consumer spending.

		<title>The Dreaded Scale</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have a lovely scale in my bathroom and am amazed that when I step on it and loose even ½ lb, I’m elated.

		<title>Food as Sacrament</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Whether patriotic or religious, food takes center stage at the celebrations of life. This makes infinite sense when you stop and consider that life, itself, is that which we celebrate.  From the Seder to the Eucharist food represents the nourishment beyond nutrition to spiritual sustenance.  The table set with the sacred calls us to be [...]]]></description>

		<title>Passionate about Food</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love food.  Pleasure, social engagement, entertainment, and comfort&#8211; these are high on my list of joys. And I love the physical nutrition that keeps this body o’mine functioning.

		<title>Welcome!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Moving, moving, moving through life. We’re all doing it and quickly, I might add. Two years ago my fast moving life put on the brakes and I found myself with a blow-out. My coma was an eye-opening experience, when my eyes did finally open. Health was gone and my life seriously at risk. Had I [...]]]></description>
