		<title>Meanwhile, Back at the Castle</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of our less brilliantly successful forays into attachment parenting was The Family Bed. When Axa was born, we had a queen-sized mattress on box springs on the floor. Unfortunately, it was Tony&#8217;s old bed from when he was growing up, and he still had his old habit of sleeping diagonally on it. That technically [...]]]></description>

		<title>Organizing My Bookshelves, Part 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You were probably just lamenting to yourself the fact that I have not yet gotten around to initiating you into the rest of the secrets of my den of books. (How do I know these things?) When last we entered the book cave of wonders, I showed you what is probably the prettiest bookcase in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rated R</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Mormons (at least in the U.S., where the MPAA holds sway) have a soft norm against watching R-rated movies. There are still lots of Mormons who watch them (just like there are plenty of Mormons who drink Coke or watch the Superbowl on Sunday or let their little girls wear tank tops), but for some,  not [...]]]></description>

		<title>Austen, Steampunk, Star Wars Art, Life of Fred, and Flunking Sainthood</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What Matters in Jane Austen?: Twenty Crucial Puzzles Solved by John Mullan My rating: 4 of 5 stars It&#8217;s hard for me to resist a book about Jane Austen. And this one did not disappoint. Mullan raises all sorts of deceptively simple questions, from what the weather was to when and how the characters blush [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Word From Our Readers, Episode 3</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What with the death of Hugo Chavez, the Syrian refugee count reaching 1 million, the coming drone apocalypse, and everything else depressing in the world, we all really need something to cheer us up. So here are my top picks from the last six months of search engine queries that have landed people at Casteluzzo. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Goodbye to February</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It should not be possible to get the February doldrums in Florida. But I am ready to say goodbye to last month, and feeling like I&#8217;m falling apart. I suppose part of it was having a house full of guests the week of Axa&#8217;s baptism, not to mention a trip to Disneyworld the day before. [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Fossilized Birthday</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last Tuesday was Axa&#8217;s 8th birthday. We spent the morning at the Daytona Museum of Arts and Sciences. They had quite an interesting mishmash of exhibits, including a room devoted entirely to art depicting space flight, and another of Spanish conquistador weapons. But Axa&#8217;s favorite, and the reason we went to the museum on her [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sugar Babies 2.0</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It was Axa&#8217;s birthday last Tuesday, and it turned out to be a pretty action-packed week, so I have plenty to blog about. But first, some exciting news: we have new sugar gliders! No, Merry and Pippin did not have babies (they are both, after all, neutered males). A friend of friend needed to rehome [...]]]></description>

		<title>The New, Improved Kindle Paperwhite!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last week, my beloved Kindle finally died. Axa was getting ready to read The Princess and the Goblin aloud to all of us from the back seat of the car. She opened up the case, flicked the power switch and . . . . nothing. Well, not exactly nothing. Faint lines on the screen, and tantalizing [...]]]></description>

		<title>Organizing My Bookshelves, Part 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I asked on Facebook for suggestions on organizing my home library, I was amused to find that multiple people suggested organizing the books by color. Now nobody is denying that a bookshelf organized by color is very pretty. But how do you find the books once you&#8217;ve organized them? Maybe I just have too many [...]]]></description>
