		<title>Hip Hip Crochet!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When it comes to crocheting, I&#39;m hooked!
For my first crochet project I decided to replicate a brilliant monster wallet that I purchased a few years back at a small craft show behind Meltdown Comics. (Unfortunately, I don&#39;t know the identity of the crafter who originally had this stroke of genius.) The wallet consists of a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Smitten with Knittin&#8217;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[smit-ten [smit-n]
&#8211;adjective
1. struck, as with a hard blow.
2. grievously or disastrously stricken or afflicted.
3. very much in love.
I believe that accurately sums up my love-hate relationship with knitting. I&#39;m totally jazzed because I finally completed my first knitting project. Take a look:

I feel that, for my first attempt, this vintage-inspired scarf is quite charming. However, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sprinkles Galore</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wondering why this website was neglected for the past few months? Wonder no more!

My husband and I are now the proud &#34;parents&#34; of a kitten named Sprinkles Galore. He&#39;s quite a handful, but we couldn&#39;t be more pleased to finally have a kitty of our own!
Want a peak into the mind of our cat? You [...]]]></description>

		<title>Crafty Gifting: Episode III</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
There are those who would say giving a gift card demonstrates thoughtlessness. Personally, I enjoy receiving gift cards. However, I do understand where our anti-gift card friends are coming from. Gift cards can lack that personal touch. Therefore, I thought I would suggest three ways that you can get crafty and dress up gift cards, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Crafty Gifting: Part Deux</title>
		<description><![CDATA[How is a necklace related to a sewing basket? Answer: It&#8217;s not. Enter the almighty Theme! Theme. Theme, theme, theme. I even like saying the word, &#8220;theme.&#8221; (Alright, enough with the IT Crowd references.) I am a total theme freak. It is the theme that unifies all the elements of your gift. And, theming your [...]]]></description>

		<title>Crafty Gifting: Part 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love giving gifts! It&#8217;s a challenging but enjoyable enterprise to find gifts that will be in some way significant to the recipient. I do admit that most often, mainly due to time constraints, it is much easier to purchase prefabricated items. In this individualization-loving, consumer world there are frequently numerous gift options that you [...]]]></description>

		<title>Creepy Cute</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have a penchant for the odd and quasi-creepy. I am definitely a classic monster kind of gal. Dracula, Frankenstein&#8217;s monster, Godzilla, the Creature from the Black Lagoon — I love them all! However, while I do enjoy a tinge of creepy, even the fuzzy Wolf Man can&#8217;t really be described as &#8220;cute.&#8221; So, how [...]]]></description>

		<title>March 4: A Day to Remember</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today is National Grammar Day! In a world where the lowercase letter &#8220;i&#8221; is a perfectly acceptable substitute for the pronoun (in most forms of casual written communication), the fight to maintain good grammar is very near and dear to my heart. If a well-crafted sentence warms the cockles of your heart, you can join [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sometimes, I Just Don&#8217;t Know.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Honestly, sometimes I just don&#8217;t know what&#8217;s going on my head. Such was the case when I created Fat Chemists.

What I do know is that I am, at times, a crazy perfectionist. Most often, symmetry is my goal. The outlining on my obese friend here was an attempt at loosening up a bit. A very [...]]]></description>

		<title>Chicks that Rock</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Not too long ago, my hubby and I came home to this:
 
 
These fluffy little guys played just long enough for us to snap a few pictures, and then they scurried off into unknown corners of the apartment. We&#8217;re pretty sure that they&#8217;ve been practicing while we&#8217;re out, because they were rockin&#8217; it!
