		<title>Brining Turkey</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I posted a link earlier to the Bay &#38; Lemon Brined Turkey that I&#8217;ll be doing this year for Thanksgiving &#8212; more and more turkey chefs are swearing by the brining process lately, for good reason. The juiciness and flavor that brining infuses into the bird is too good to pass up!

		<title>BBQ Pulled Pork in a Crock</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#160;
I was inspired by this post on ma&#8217;ona to post a slow cooked pork recipe.
This recipe for BBQ pulled pork is the result of said inspiration &#8212; and it also goes well with the cheap and easy theme of this foodie blog.

		<title>Frugal Food Tips</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
