		<title>Trail Mix</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since going Primal, I&#8217;ve been making batch after batch of this trail mix.  It makes a great on-the-go snack, and now that I&#8217;m up most of the lots at night with Slingshot, this has become my go-to midnight/2am/4am snack as well.  I keep a container of this trail mix next to my rocker in Slingshot&#8217;s [...]<br/><br/><hr/>Please check out The Picky Apple sponsors:<br/><br/><a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=166398&u=504306&m=14338&urllink=&afftrack=">momAgenda - Get organized with style</a><br/><a href=""></a><br/><a href=""></a><br/><a href=""></a>]]></description>

		<title>Cupcake Liner Wreath</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m normally quite the homebody, but over the weekend, I really just reached a point where I needed to get out of the house for a little bit.  My destination?  Hobby Lobby!  I had the crafting bug, and wanted to do something for Valentine&#8217;s Day.  I don&#8217;t have ANY Valentine&#8217;s decorations.  Not a one.  So [...]<br/><br/><hr/>Please check out The Picky Apple sponsors:<br/><br/><a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=166398&u=504306&m=14338&urllink=&afftrack=">momAgenda - Get organized with style</a><br/><a href=""></a><br/><a href=""></a><br/><a href=""></a>]]></description>

		<title>2012 Weekly Household Planner</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last year I created my own cleaning calendar, and that worked fairly well for me (see sample in the right sidebar).  But with Slingshot&#8217;s arrival at the beginning of 2012, I knew I would need to switch things up this year.  Sometimes I find it much easier when someone else does all the thinking and [...]<br/><br/><hr/>Please check out The Picky Apple sponsors:<br/><br/><a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=166398&u=504306&m=14338&urllink=&afftrack=">momAgenda - Get organized with style</a><br/><a href=""></a><br/><a href=""></a><br/><a href=""></a>]]></description>

		<title>Chicken Parmesan Meatloaf</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I hate meatloaf.  The Picky Apple hates meatloaf.  The Little Apple?  Well, he just hates meat, period.  So I tend to gloss over any recipes for meatloaf that come my way.  BUT The Picky Apple and I DO love Chicken Parmesan, so when I saw this recipe for Chicken Parmesan Meatloaf, I decided to check [...]<br/><br/><hr/>Please check out The Picky Apple sponsors:<br/><br/><a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=166398&u=504306&m=14338&urllink=&afftrack=">momAgenda - Get organized with style</a><br/><a href=""></a><br/><a href=""></a><br/><a href=""></a>]]></description>

		<title>Portabello Mushroom Mini Pizzas</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Even though I&#8217;m still going strong with my Primal/Paleo lifestyle, we have pizza night fairly regularly around here.  I make homemade crust for the guys, and they add their own toppings.  There are quite a few Paleo pizza crust recipes out there, but I&#8217;ve discovered that portabello mushrooms make a great base for my own [...]<br/><br/><hr/>Please check out The Picky Apple sponsors:<br/><br/><a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=166398&u=504306&m=14338&urllink=&afftrack=">momAgenda - Get organized with style</a><br/><a href=""></a><br/><a href=""></a><br/><a href=""></a>]]></description>

		<title>Painted Curtains</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When we were deciding how to decorate Slingshot&#8217;s nursery, I didn&#8217;t have a clear vision for the curtains.  After we got the board and batten up and the walls painted, I knew we needed something to break up all that blue and white.  I wasn&#8217;t too pleased with any ready-made curtain options, so i decided [...]<br/><br/><hr/>Please check out The Picky Apple sponsors:<br/><br/><a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=166398&u=504306&m=14338&urllink=&afftrack=">momAgenda - Get organized with style</a><br/><a href=""></a><br/><a href=""></a><br/><a href=""></a>]]></description>

		<title>Roasted Rosemary Potatoes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been making these potatoes for YEARS now, and I can&#8217;t believe I&#8217;ve never shared the recipe with you!  My favorite two potato recipes are this one and the Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes.  These are clearly the lighter, healthier option of the two.  The recipe calls for new potatoes, but you can also use regular old [...]<br/><br/><hr/>Please check out The Picky Apple sponsors:<br/><br/><a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=166398&u=504306&m=14338&urllink=&afftrack=">momAgenda - Get organized with style</a><br/><a href=""></a><br/><a href=""></a><br/><a href=""></a>]]></description>

Thoughts on Shepherd&#8217;s birth, his name, and our first few days&#8230;. Shepherd: We wanted another slightly unusual name.  One that was distinctly masculine, one with a good nickname (in this case, &#8220;Shep&#8221;).
