It quickly became evident that this weekend might be a good one to hibernate at home. Friday morning&#8217;s commute was a bit longer than normal because [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Books (especially fiction) are often viewed as an escape from our surroundings into another world. However, sometimes the books that you read are set in your city, your neighborhood, your familiarity. These can be fun reads as well &#8211; allowing you to look at something familiar through a new light. I&#8217;m currently reading a book that is [...]]]></description>
