		<title>Try This:  &#8220;I threw in what I had&#8221; Chocolate Cake</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We wanted dessert last night and we needed it quick, given that it was already bedtime when dinner prep was in progress.  My daughter suggested the famous lava cake we&#8217;ve made plenty of times.  I didn&#8217;t have quite what I wanted for it, but I remembered a recipe for a pound cake in the microwave, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dyingarts.wordpress.com&blog=671746&post=97&subd=dyingarts&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My work schedule is a bit erratic these days as Steve and I try to work around the fact that we are losing our lovely night Nanny, Ariel, to an IVY-LEAGUE grad school , Columbia, in the fall.  We are trying to need less Nanny days as that approaches and make schedule changes that work [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dyingarts.wordpress.com&blog=671746&post=96&subd=dyingarts&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>May I Recommend?  A Yummy recommendation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Okie dokie, for those of you in the Knoxville area (or interested in shipping to you), I have found a new and most yummy recommendation for you.  This is an odd one to be coming from me, since I love to bake and usually do all my kids birthday cookies, cupcakes, cakes, etc. myself.  I [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dyingarts.wordpress.com&blog=671746&post=95&subd=dyingarts&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[   Brady at Cocoa Beach in February
 
Little Brady, now 4, the baby of the crew and still the &#8220;runt of the litter,&#8221; comes running in from playing in the yard and states &#8220;I had to!&#8221;
Oh no, &#8220;had to&#8221; what?  Pee on yourself?  Cross the street and visit Cole without asking?  Throw something at your brother?  Sneak out [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dyingarts.wordpress.com&blog=671746&post=93&subd=dyingarts&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Bad Mommy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Okay, so I&#8217;ve done it again.  I&#8217;ve let one sneak up on me. 
Has it ever happened to you?  In all your lists, calendars, post-it notes, organizational tools, and attempt to keep it all together &#8212; you forget something important?  In this case, important to one of your kids? 
And it couldn&#8217;t have happened to a nicer [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dyingarts.wordpress.com&blog=671746&post=90&subd=dyingarts&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>On Having a Teenage Daughter&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve actually only had a teenageer since January, but, trust me, she&#8217;s spent the last several years working up to this title.  It&#8217;s given me a chance to at least see what&#8217;s coming - prepare me a bit.  Here&#8217;s a few things I&#8217;ve noticed in the last few days that I&#8217;m thinking probably has some commonality to [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dyingarts.wordpress.com&blog=671746&post=88&subd=dyingarts&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>You haven&#8217;t written on your blog in long time</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s true &#8211; I haven&#8217;t blogged in quite a while.  Not because there&#8217;s nothing to tell or that I have nothing to say (never!), or even that I don&#8217;t want to&#8230;but because time is so terribly short.  That, and the fact that fatigue, or mild depression, or procrastination, or something like that causes me to [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dyingarts.wordpress.com&blog=671746&post=87&subd=dyingarts&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Try This:  Easy Pizza Rolls</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Tried this one night in a desperation to find something for dinner and to have felt like I at least partially &#8220;made it&#8221; instead of purchasing and to use up the goodies in the fridge.  My kids now love it &#8211; who knew?
Start with refrigerated crescent rolls in the can.  You really can&#8217;t go wrong [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dyingarts.wordpress.com&blog=671746&post=86&subd=dyingarts&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Have you thanked a teacher today?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s the start of the school year here in Tennessee!  Yes, I know, early August, 96 degree weather with ungodly humidity, but really, school started here yesterday. 
We have 3 kids in the actual public school system here and 1 pre-schooler.  This is the year that they are most sprinkled out among the schools.  We have [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dyingarts.wordpress.com&blog=671746&post=85&subd=dyingarts&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Summer Humor</title>
		<description><![CDATA[School starts on Thursday and it&#8217;s been a wonderful, laid-back summer here at the Houkhouse.  We&#8217;ve spent most of the time at the pool and watching those kids continue to grow right before our eyes.  Harper tackled the swim team at age 5 and won Most Improved in his age division.  He literally couldn&#8217;t swim [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dyingarts.wordpress.com&blog=671746&post=83&subd=dyingarts&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
