		<title>Nine People and One Destination</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Several months ago my parents, sister and brother-in-law, and all of us decided to head to Florida in lieu of a family Christmas celebration. The kids, having never been there before were so excited. For weeks before we left, we were hounded with questions like &#8220;When do we leave?&#8221; and &#8220;Will it be hot in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Somebody Paid My Heat Bill for the Winter</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have an exciting story to tell. It starts a while ago when we went to pick up a few bags of wood pellets for our pellet stove.  We switched to an alternative heating source a couple years ago to save money on our heat and allow us to burn whatever fuel is available.

		<title>The Easiest Turkey Recipe Ever</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This year I heard of something shocking. Earth shattering really. Someone said a turkey could be baked from a fully-frozen state to near perfection. Blasphemous! Who ever heard of such a thing. It&#8217;s been done the same way for generations and that includes starting days a head of time, placing the turkey in the fridge, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;d like to take credit for a recent shopping trip that saved over 50%, but I can&#8217;t. My 12 year old daughter deserves all the credit. After years of watching me do coupon match-ups and accompanying me on trips to double coupon days, she is a pro. I&#8217;m so proud of her, that I thought [...]]]></description>

		<title>I Cannot Put This Book Down</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s funny. I have been listening to Steven Curtis Chapman for years, and when we started our first adoption over eight years ago I was acutely aware of their adoption journeys. When tragedy struck a few years ago, and their littlest daughter, Maria died at age five, I was so moved. We were in the [...]]]></description>
