		<title>You say plum tomato, I say a roma</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I love a fresh roma. I like to to roll one around in my hands, feel its weight and its skin. When I make sandwiches for the boys to take to school I&#8217;ll put together a number of ingredients, but slicing up a roma&#8230; I pause, salt and pepper a slice for myself, and savour [...]]]></description>

		<title>Exploring Avalon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A good friend had been offering me the 50 cent tour of the proposed gated wilderness community development above Portuguese Cove for some time now and Sunday past I took him up on it.
What&#8217;s a gated wilderness community you ask? Well, presumably its a subdivision with walking trails and water access that locks out the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Our neighbour has Christmas people trapped in a bubble</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
We didn&#8217;t put any lights on the porch this holiday season, and relied on the neighbours around us to carry the holiday decorative weight for our block. Lights appeared before December on a few homes and a few weeks before the big day the folks next door put up the inflatable display they&#8217;ve used for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Twitter: &#8216;This Other Life&#8217;?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;And if we were to collect these small moments in a notebook and save them over a period of months we would see certain trends emerge from our collection – certain voices would emerge that have been trying to speak through us. We would realize that we have been having another life altogether, one we [...]]]></description>

		<title>No Business Like Snow Business</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Lets play catch up. I&#8217;ve been decked for over ten days by a ruthless cold that left me gasping for breath and sapped of energy. Its Wednesday morning and Halifax has been slapped upside the face last evening by snow, ice pellets and drizzle. I stepped outside this morning and pondered my long held feeling [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hannah Minzloff&#8217;s Underground</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I usually walk to work from the Hydrostone neighbourhood in north-end Halifax to The Big University in the morning and often hop on a bus to go home at the end of the afternoon. The other day I caught a number 80 going down Halifax&#8217;s Robie Street and had the good fortune to have a [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Cold Stagnant World of Captain Star</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Just received a copy of The Captain Star Omnibus in the mail from my publishing mogul brother Chris Paul and Sybertooth Publishing in Sackville, New Brunswick. If you were a fan of the cult classic show Captain Star that ran for 13 episodes in Canada and the UK 1997/1998 and later in the U.S., you&#8217;ll [...]]]></description>

		<title>Every Other Day of the Week is Fine, Yeah</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
When there&#8217;s a big dump of snow overnight in Halifax I appreciate hearing the monster sound of neighbour Archie&#8217;s snow eating machine. I don&#8217;t think Archie likes me, he scowls at my backyard feeders because they attract birds, doesn&#8217;t like flowers and is annoyed at the idea that our rose petals might blow onto his [...]]]></description>

		<title>Real Time Flight Tracking</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A damp, chilly Halifax Sunday and I&#8217;m occaisonally peeking at the track of WestJet 532, making its way from Winnipeg to Halifax. We&#8217;ll head out to YHZ to pickup Goldilocks, with any luck it won&#8217;t be snowing badly yet. Alex thinks its far too geeky but I think its cool that you can punch in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Infinite Heat</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I must have been thinking about the -13C temp outside as I got ready to head to work this morning. I felt compelled to snap a photo of our poor old stove which has more than served this kitchen well. It&#8217;ll probably up and die on us just when we least expect it to. Infinite [...]]]></description>
