		<title>Stylish, Affordable Vegan Footwear</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I&#8217;m a recent convert to Old Navy. Primarily because their pants fit me, because the clothing is inexpensive and generally of a decent quality, and because you can buy it online and with easy returns. In addition to buying a few news pairs of much-needed pants (I&#8217;m less thrilled about their tops), I discovered that [...]]]></description>

		<title>Almost No-Knead Bread (revisited)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[





I first wrote about Mark Bittman&#8217;s no-knead bread recipe more than two years ago. Here&#8217;s the version I&#8217;ve been making for the last year or so . . . this version incorporates wheat flour and takes about 8 hours for the first rising (as opposed to 18-24) &#8212; so you can put it on in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ethiopian Delights</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
A couple weeks back, I noticed that they were selling Ethiopian bread at the Central Square 7-11. (Yes, at 7-11 &#8212; it&#8217;s Central Square, after all). I bought a large pack of fermented njira and set out to make some Ethiopian veggies to go with it. 
In reading around on the internet, I decided there [...]]]></description>

One of our early stops was Le Marais, 4th arrondissement, where we had a falafel snack at the famous &#8220;Ace [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s Farm Share Time Again</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As the weather starts to turn, my mind turns to farm shares. 
Chowhound has a good conversation on these, and NOFA (Northeast Organic Farming Assocation) appears to have a pretty comprehensive list for certified organic farms in Massachusetts. I&#8217;m going with Red Fire Farm this year&#8211;it&#8217;s organic, has a focus on variety, offers a fruit [...]]]></description>

		<title>Vegetable Korma (includes vegan version)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Korma is a savory vegetable dish served in many Indian restaurants. I offer two versions here, one with heavy cream, and a vegan version using coconut milk. 
Korma gets it character and depth from the combination of fried spices and cream/coconut milk. The nice thing is, you can make it with whatever vegetables you might [...]]]></description>
