		<description><![CDATA[I couldn&#8217;t help but notice that a pair of monarchs was mating in the grass next to the garden I was weeding today. I had kind of assumed that this wasn&#8217;t a very long process, but it went on pretty much the whole time I was outside&#8211;over two hours!  It looked a lot like butterfly [...]]]></description>

No need to take the grate off the grill and clean it before cooking, right? That changed when he gave our entire family--including himself--the worse case of food poisoning ever.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The news about the BP Oil Disaster just gets worse everyday and it really feels like there is nothing we can do to stop it.   Yes, we can't stop the BP pipe from gushing gallons of oil into the Gulf, but there are many things that gardener's can do to prevent another huge oil disaster in the future. Gardeners can make a big difference just by making more informed choices about how we garden and where we buy our produce.]]></description>
