		<description><![CDATA[hahaha, that is awesome! I, too, wish I lived up there a lot of the time...and then we get like, three inches of snow for two days here and I think, &quot;nahhhhhh, I&#039;m good.&quot; ;o) But yeah - I&#039;d be on that program like white on rice. 

Food-wise, is there anything in particular you&#039;d like me to try and whip up, ma&#039;am?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m more than open to any and all suggestions, always and forever. Mean it. Especially from the likes of you ;o) Thanks for the encouragement, fellow creative! (PS - I love the play on refraction - I think - in your photography logo.)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks so much, Sharon! Sorry it&#039;s taken me this long to respond - I&#039;m not totally new to blogging, but I am to WordPress, and it&#039;s a steeper learning curve than I anticipated...My comment spam was *so* secure that I couldn&#039;t respond to anything. Good times ;o) Thanks for stopping by, hope you&#039;re enjoying it so far!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks so much, Patricia! I&#039;m having a blast playing around with the Nikon - I almost feel like a fraud when someone compliments a picture, like, &quot;no, no, it&#039;s seriously ALL the camera!&quot; Also, I had no clue your favorite color was purple. I mean, why would I, really, I guess I mean I just never pegged you as  &#039;purple person&#039;. Learn something new every day :o)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jessica!

I love the website.  In fact, I read your link regarding the small tomatoes, and thought &#039;huh - that sounds like Jess could have written it herself&#039; before realizing that you did, in fact write it yourself, and it was your new blog!  Anyway, sheer brilliance.  I&#039;m much interested (in the spirit of cfww) in your culinary techniques, as I myself have very few.

Also, in your &#039;About&#039; section, I&#039;m in love with your first paragraph.  Do you mind if I post it on fbook?  I will give you and chronicuriousity all the credit it deserves, of course. 

Oh - and also - wished you lived up here.  I just found out that Columbia has a writing program that a dr recommended to me, that I think would be perfect for you.

		<description><![CDATA[Wow. Between your fifth grade teacher flower-wording you to pieces, prissy miss graduate face being an über snob to you and the graphic of a rabbit having a double rainbow mindgasm, I think you&#039;ve painted a beautiful canvas of talkability here. 

Looking forward to all of it...and the girly stuff I don&#039;t get I&#039;ll show to my wife so she can explain it to me...slowly.

Well done, my friend. It looks and reads marvelously.]]></description>
