		<title>While Cleaning My Study</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
With a few days&#8217; lull in events for Cakewalk, I&#8217;ve been cleaning my house. I mean seriously cleaning: not just moving the piles around to vacuum under them, but actually going through the piles and finding field trip permission slips that should have been turned in three years ago, and a Real Simple magazine from [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cakewalk 101, Part 2: My Stalker, Tom Hanks, or Ingredients and What to Do with Them</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Back in the day when I sat through a lot of command-performance family Sunday drives, I made up a mental game for myself that I called Zebra/Button. My idea was that if you thought hard enough, you could find a connection between anything in the world and any other thing, no matter how unrelated they [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Brownies Heard &#8216;Round the World, or Cakewalk 101, Part 1: Equipment</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Surely every obsessive-compulsive baker shares my megalomaniacal fantasy that one of her best recipes will end up famous, clamored for the world over. Today must be my day for fantasy fulfillment, because my recipe for chewy fudge brownies is in The New York Times! I have never been so proud! There’s even one of those [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’m about to run off to The Booksmith on Haight Street for my first reading from Cakewalk, which was published yesterday. But first I thought I’d give a glimpse of what I’m bringing with me, because the reading is also a party, and I’ve spent the day baking…what else is new.

		<title>Songs in the key of life</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some chapters in life seem to come equipped with theme music. I can’t think of my first year of college without the thumping percussive downbeat of AC/DC’s “Back in Black” thrashing from the boys’ rooms in my coed freshman dormitory. Incongruous it may be, but the slideshow of memories I have from my maiden voyage [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pink Birthday Cupcakes for Emma, via Mount Etna</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I’ve had a thing for blood oranges ever since I first saw them at the incomparable Berkeley Bowl market more than twenty-five years ago. I asked the nearest produce guy about a bin of small oranges blushed red like peaches, and I thought I heard him wrong when he said they were “blood oranges.” It [...]]]></description>
