		<description><![CDATA[When was the last time your grocery store gave you a hug, a handshake, and inspired you for the week&#8217;s cooking? That&#8217;s exactly what your market can do for you — there are people whose skills, hard work, and pride in their craft put quality food on your table, and I enjoy being reminded of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ray Mears is famous for his many tv appearances where he teaches not only survival, but bushcraft. The difference from &#8216;survival&#8217; shows is striking, as Ray attempts to convey the importance of long-term bushcraft and sustainability as practiced by many aboriginal tribes in a variety of different regions. He has always expressed his special love [...]]]></description>

House &#38; Home&#8216;s Suzanne Dimma and 3rd Uncle Design&#8216;s Arriz Hassam walk viewers through their amazingly designed cottage in this six-minute-long video. Some might say it&#8217;s not fitting to have such a &#8220;modern&#8221; approach to a cottage, to have such luxury in the middle [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been thinking of trading in my folding PakCanoe for a lighter, more maneuverable vessel (I have the 17-footer, but I would be fine with a 16-, or even 15-foot), but not because it has let me down in any way. For any of you who are unsure as to the viability of the PakCanoe [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ontario Parks has a new reservation service that they&#8217;re going to be rolling out in 2011. This means that anybody that normally reserves during the late fall or winter months will be on a first-come, first-served basis. Not really a problem in the winter months, I find, but that&#8217;s only for the backcountry—I&#8217;m not sure [...]]]></description>

Although it seems like it would be very affordable, I&#8217;m not convinced it&#8217;s such a good thing, as these disposable teabags only will purify one litre of water, but [...]]]></description>
