		<description><![CDATA[Do you know what day it is?  Why it&#8217;s corned beef day!  Ahh you thought it was St. Patrick&#8217;s Day didn&#8217;t you?  In keeping with our theme of totally bizarre holidays I thought I&#8217;d rename it corned beef day.
I&#8217;ve written about St. Pat&#8217;s before (here, here and there&#8217;s a recipe here) so there isn&#8217;t anything [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Would you look at that.  Nary a Christmas letter to be found around here.  I&#8217;m rather disappointed in myself about it.  Um, not really.
The whole trusty family arrived in Washington on the 22nd and we have been on the go ever since.  We haul the dog with us (she&#8217;s finally getting adjusted to riding in [...]]]></description>

Look how beautiful that turkey is
The Trusty Mother-in-Law celebrated her birthday.  I would tell you how old she is, but I&#8217;m not mean.  It doesn&#8217;t matter because she&#8217;s beautiful.  See&#8230;

		<description><![CDATA[This past weekend I had the pleasure of spending time with good friends and family.  I always enjoy doing that.  This time it was to celebrate my being yet another year older.  Aren&#8217;t birthdays just an excuse to get together and have a party?  I think so.
Amidst the invitees for this particular party I included [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hockey, family, hockey, family.  That was our weekend.
This weekend we celebrated the graduations of two of my cousins.  There was some kind of baby boom around the 1991-92 mark in my family.  This year we had 3 (of the ungodly number of grandchildren) in the age range of graduation.
1 was from my mom&#8217;s side.  Saturday [...]]]></description>

It has been a mostly uneventful year in our home.  We once again staved off arrest by only participating in minor and unremarkable crimes like shoplifting [...]]]></description>
