		<title>Brazilian Cherry Jam</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Summer is the season for Brazilian Cherries and there are bushes of them all over Brisbane just bursting with fruit. The bright red cherries contrast beautifully against the dark green leaves so they are very easy to spot.  I have seen them along the train line and other public areas.  On a morning walk in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Winter up the mountain</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The last two times we have been up the mountain it has been cold and wintery &#8211; perfect weather for a nice big fire. Growth has slowed down significantly and the insects are hibernating. It is beautiful. We have been a bit overwhelmed about what to do with all the clear space and it doesn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<title>Lemons and Limes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There were plenty of lemons and limes at the farmers market this week. Feeling inspired by the Gourmet Farmer and the 100-Mile diet, and also keen to start filling our pantry, I thought I would try my hand at a bit of preserving. I have been stocking up on jars from garage sales in preparation. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Chicken Rescue</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On Saturday we added three new members to our urban farm &#8211; Jean, Hazel and Nola. Our feathered friends were rescued from a battery farm just before they would have been sent to slaughter. If you have not already been shocked by programs like Jamie Oliver&#8217;s Fowl Dinners about the factory production of chickens then [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mountain update: Easter 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We had a very productive weekend on our property over Easter; it&#8217;s amazing what a bit of machinery can do! Steve Hart, a local farmer, came up with his tractor and did some slashing, clearing and road repairs for us. In just five hours Steve widened our driveway and built some drainage humps, and then [...]]]></description>

		<title>Things to do around Brisbane</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Brisbane is the perfect base to explore from. Travel 1 to 2 hours north or south and you have gorgeous beaches and more national parks than you will know what to do with.  We put together a suggested itinerary  for Nikki and Si and thought we would share it with you all. Day 1 &#8211; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Konichiwa Japan! Sayonara Osutoraria!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After an amazing 10 days in Japan, our heads are still spinning from the bright lights, fast trains and general craziness of it all. We started in Tokyo, then hit the slopes in Nozawa Onsen and finished off with a cultural fix in Kyoto. The food in Japan was amazing everywhere we went, from the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Our Wedding</title>
		<description><![CDATA[(We&#8217;ve been married for almost four months, but thought we&#8217;d better finally post about the big day. What better time to do it than Valentine&#8217;s Day!) We had an amazing and beautiful wedding on the beach at Cutter&#8217;s Reserve, Point Lookout on North Stradbroke Island, Queensland on October 25, 2009. We had 70 guests including [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nasty Vines &amp; Other Invasive Species</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It was quite deflating to see new shoots of nasty weeds sprouting where we have been working relentlessly to clear. I was reminded of Michael Pollan&#8217;s brilliant  book &#8220;The Botany of  Desire&#8221; in which he discusses the Greek mythological gods Apollo and Dionysus—Apollo symbolizes the desire for order and control, while Dionysus embodies madness and [...]]]></description>
