		<title>In Which Many Books Were Read During 2011</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hello friends! We hope your &#8220;festive period&#8221; (as Transport for London calls it) was delightful; ours was! You can just pretend this New Year&#8217;s post aligned perfectly with the beginning of 2012&#8230; As we looked back on what we learned during 2011, we thought we&#8217;d share a slice of our thinking and show you what [...]]]></description>

		<title>Guess What: Simple, Gorgeous 3-D Snowflakes Tutorial!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So! Last week I was visiting some of the neighbor girls on our estate (you can see our flat from their balcony.) And we were chatting about birthdays and holidays and decorating, and one of the girls mentioned she&#8217;d just learnt how to make really easy, beautiful paper snowflakes. And I said, &#8220;You should show [...]]]></description>

		<title>Photo Friday: Strikes and Assemblies</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As you may have noticed (or maybe not?), we were absent on the blog last week.  We&#8217;ve been busy working on some projects, and taking a lot of photos of a couple big events last week. You may have seen on the news last Wednesday that London and several other cities around the UK faced [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hello, New Favorite Food Thing&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In a departure from ministry-related news, we now bring you a slice of Liz-and-Peter-Life-in-London: Lunch! Now that I don&#8217;t work in an office nine-to-five, we&#8217;re experimenting more with food and healthier eating. And I&#8217;ve recently found a new favorite thing: Fresh-baked Pita Chips! They win because they are ridiculously easy to make and ridiculously tasty [...]]]></description>

		<title>Photo Friday: Walking Home: Autumn in Poplar &amp; Limehouse</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This week was our church&#8217;s annual week of prayer and fasting, and most of the prayer meetings were at the church office building. It&#8217;s about a half hour walk from our house, and I was so inspired by the fall colors that I brought a camera one day for the walk home. The churchyard at [...]]]></description>

		<title>That Dreaded (Sorry, I Mean Delightful) Time of Year&#8230;Budgets</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Every year with InnerCHANGE, we have to sit down and go through our budget—looking at how much we&#8217;ve spent, how much we expect to spend, and how much we&#8217;ve raised to cover whatever gets spent. As neither Liz or I are particularly fond of numbers or money, this isn&#8217;t exactly our favorite task.  But nonetheless, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Photo Friday: Windows on Our World</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As photographers, it&#8217;s easy to get set in a habitual way of taking photos.  So it&#8217;s always really cool to work on a project where we get to see the vision of others.  It&#8217;s especially cool if the project is done by kids. For the past month, Peter and I have been assisting with just [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Weekend of Holidays</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This past weekend has been full of celebrations! Saturday was Guy Fawkes Night, also called Bonfire Night.  This British holiday traditionally celebrates the failure of the Gunpowder Plot to blow up Parliament and King James I in 1605.  I&#8217;m not sure how many people actually know the history of it; mostly it&#8217;s a day to [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Perils of House Hunting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, we viewed a nearby flat for sale. As many of you know, we&#8217;ve been looking around for a big enough flat to house both us and another couple and their son.  This is already a challenge due to far too little housing, poor quality flats that are greatly over-priced, and having a small radius [...]]]></description>
