		<title>Postcards &#8211; Creative Writing Assignment</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In my creative writing course, I asked my students to think about setting by writing a postcard.  A few of them impressed me, so I thought I&#8217;d share. The last one is mine&#8230; and it&#8217;s far from the best one!  E.T. speaks French?! Who knew?  I&#8217;m looking forward to more fun, and creative assignments with [...]]]></description>

		<title>Trudering Outing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The weather has been very strange in Munich.  At one point it&#8217;s summer and sunny, to warm even for a jacket.  The next minute it&#8217;ll rain and be cool.  So we opted for McDonald&#8217;s for breakfast so the kids to play in the indoor play area.  They didn&#8217;t seem to mind.

Scott Phillips has two new books&#8230;.  And they&#8217;re ebooks!  That&#8217;s perfect for me because it&#8217;s hard as hell to get new books in English in China.  I&#8217;m as giddy as a crack junkie.  Hook me up.
