		<title>Pumpkin Chocolate Cake</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to Whole Foods for their pumpkin chocolate cake recipe!
http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/recipes/recipe.php?recipeId=2635
This recipe translates beautifully into a gluten-free and egg-free version. The pumpkin ensures that you still get a tasty cake. We had great success making it gluten-free and egg-free by using Bob&#8217;s Red Mill Gluten-free all purpose flour with 1/2 teaspoon of Xanthan gum in place [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gluten-Free is not a marketing tool!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After an unfortunate reaction to Trader Joe&#8217;s supposedly non-gluten Organic Corn Dippers, I have sent the following email to Trader Joe&#8217;s.  If you are gluten-free, or if you have gluten-free friends, please help me in encouraging Trader Joe&#8217;s to get it right.
Dear Trader Joe&#8217;s &#8211;
Nearly two years ago I was diagnosed as celiac. At the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rain Unfriendly Foods</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Enough people have wanted to know what I can and cannot eat that I decided perhaps I should make this information available in a readily accessible place.  :)
Following are the specifics of what make up &#8220;Rain-Unfriendly&#8221; foods.  (Thanks to my friend Mollie for coining the term &#8220;Rain Friendly,&#8221; which is being co-opted here.)
Hopefully I&#8217;ll start [...]]]></description>

		<title>Unbelievable.</title>

Conservatives Map Strategies on Court Fight
By CHARLIE SAVAGE
Preparing to oppose the confirmation of President Obama’s eventual choice to succeed Justice David H. Souter, conservative groups are working together to stockpile ammunition.
How is it possible [...]]]></description>

		<title>Letting Go</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On January 27th, my dear friend and business partner, Charlene Sun, was killed in a car accident.
The days and weeks and now nearly two months since the accident have been increasingly difficult.  Shock and aloofness turned to sadness, and that sadness has now turned to rage.  Such a remarkable human being.  Sure, as all friends [...]]]></description>

		<title>For Ada Lovelace Day</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A while back I joined a pledge to write about a woman in technology that I respect on March 24, 2009.  The occasion is Ada Lovelace Day.  In the time since I pledged, my life changed dramatically.  Originally, I would have posted about some cool women I&#8217;ve recently learned of, such as Christine Peterson (credited [...]]]></description>

		<title>Another Food Allergy Person</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The funny thing about facing food allergies with gusto: people come out of the woodwork to talk with me about my solutions and to share theirs.  There are so many of us, truly, that I&#8217;m suprised awareness is still as limited as it is.
Last night I wrote an email to a friend of a [...]]]></description>

		<title>No on Prop 8</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My Mom on Prop 8 (she&#8217;s really nailed it): 
&#8220;When you allow, honor acknowledge acceptance, tolerance and love we all win. Anything that creates more fear, division, superiority and or hate gets a no vote from me. Simple&#8221;

I have to say, when the campaigning for and against Prop 8 began, I was somewhat annoyed. Our [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why I&#8217;m afraid of the Hatchet.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When McCain says that what we need is an absolute spending freeze, except in defense and &#8220;other essential services,&#8221; what, exactly, does he intend to freeze?
Thinking about the services the government offers, from infrastructure to medicare to education, police, firefighters, I&#8217;d like to know what it is that McCain considers un-essential.
California may have to have [...]]]></description>

		<title>Stand Up To Cancer Mobile Donation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

Developing a mobile donation piece for Stand Up To Cancer has been very educational.  Mobile Giving, a new company that works with non-profits offering a mobile donation mechanism, has really helped us through this and enabled us to have this cool little widget.  
After you donate, you&#8217;ll be able to copy the code and put [...]]]></description>
