		<title>Looking through new lenses</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What happens when the lens you have spent most of your adult life looking through is changed? When your personal narrative &#8211; the one of who we are and how we became to be &#8211; is given a thorough autopsy? When the role we play, whether it be victims, fighters, survivors, rebels, caregivers, new improved [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pastry Porn</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So last week we attempted to make croissants. It was a three day process. There were some scary moments in the baking when butter was pooling our pastry babies. Lessons were learned from that. But, they survived being drowned in butter and as I learned from a friend who sampled them &#8211; &#8220;there can never [...]]]></description>

		<title>An adventure right when we needed it (yay MetroRail!)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Working through this depression I have found home to not always be the best place to be, especially on a day when I am down and we have nothing planned. And so a few weeks ago, I was determined to get us out of the house and ride the metro Downtown and have some fun [...]]]></description>

		<title>Naturally Dyed Easter Eggs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[They seemed to be all the rage this year! So we gave it a go too. I was really impressed with how they turned out. Note to self: &#8211; red cabbage makes an incredible blue (pictured) &#8211; when the recipe said 2 cups of matter, it meant vegetables. 1 cup of turmeric to 4 cups [...]]]></description>

		<title>Under the microscope</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wow. I have a picture to express exactly how I feel, but I didn&#8217;t have my camera with me that day. I was in a room with stained, beveled glass door and windows. As the sunlight shone through them, it scattered fractured light all over the adjacent wall. And that was me. That was my [...]]]></description>

		<title>Expressing myself with Lady Gaga</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This was Wednesday. It started with a beautiful golden sunrise. I had to capture the joy it brought me. Then it was off to the appointment, the wake up call. Um, yeah, you are not okay. From there was scheduling an appointment for medicinal support because it was now clear I needed it. Then came [...]]]></description>

		<title>Remembering my spirituality</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I think that spirituality is highly personal. No matter how you were raised, I think we all search for something that speaks to us. Something that meets us on a soul level. We are all individuals having a very unique life experience. I imagine that even among people in the same religion, each person has [...]]]></description>

		<title>Searching for the artist inside</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Somewhere deep inside me lies an artist. She is still searching for the medium and the tools, but she is getting close. I see pictures in my head all of the time, I feel the urge to make things, but I don&#8217;t always know how. While life has been heavy, the urge has been stronger [...]]]></description>
