		<description><![CDATA[That photo cracks me up! He is all about that banana!

Let&#039;s see...
1. Being able to ride my bike farther away every week. 
2. Homemade popsicles! Especially nectarine, peach, coconut milk, flax ones. Mmm...
3. New active wear. I got a bright blue racer back tank with built in sports bra and it&#039;s changed my life. No more sweaty t-shirts!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@ thais - Aww, thank you so much!

@ Stephanie - HA! I think I remember you. That&#039;s so awesome, he was having such a blast running around &quot;meeting&quot; people, haha. Next time you&#039;ll have to introduce yourself!

@ Beens - Good luck with the move and the many changes! Also, Future me, wow what an amazing idea.  =)

@ Sierra - I&#039;m pretty sure Seattle is having their own Iron Chef soon, you should look into it!

@ Selina - Haha, yeah it took me a looooong time, but it *did* finally happen.

@ erosan - LUCK! I am seriously excited about your solar dehydrator project!

@ sara thomas - Oh man, hooray for balance. i&#039;m getting their too, and man it makes all the difference in the world, doesn&#039;t it?

@ Alina S - Hey, welcome to the West! I hope everything goes smoothly for you and your transition time is super fun!

@ Kelly H. - Mmm, good list! Especially #2, that is so delightful.  =)

@ Michelle Felt - hello! Welcome to Bonzai! (and also welcome to Portland?)

@ panchu - Don&#039;t worry, I always see every comment! Sometimes I just get behind on answering them . . . 

I am working on a sprouted lentil cracker recipe to post on the blog! Still tweaking, but it&#039;s close. As for lentil sprout time, it shouldn&#039;t take a week. I&#039;d say those are probably goners. Lentils will show tiny tails within 2 days, fully mature tails in 3-4 days (4 days is pushing it and risks molding)

@ RK - I haven&#039;t tried Pamela&#039;s, are they vegan as well?

@ cathy - Aw, yay welcome out of the lurk, I&#039;m glad you said hi! 

@ Monika - YAY! Happy vacation lady, lord knows you deserve it.  =)  Also, can&#039;t wait to see Nina on Vegansaurus, w00t!

@ Kate - Awesome list. I&#039;m actually doing something similar with sweets these days - 6 days off, 1 day on. That&#039;s awesome that you found something that works so well for you!

@ erosan (again) - Yes! My traffic shot up and I was like wtf? Yay Lifehacker, and hello to any new folks!

@ panchu (again) - This is Bonzai, almost anything is allowed!  ;-D

But what is your question? I&#039;ve written some articles on cloth diapering, but are you wanting something more related to this MMM? Like how to make your own or something? Let me know what you&#039;re hoping for!

@ Moira - Aww, lovely list and #4 makes me all melty. That&#039;s the best feeling ever, falling in love with the person you love.  =)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m on vacation and attempting to stay unplugged for a full two weeks, but I *had* to get in on the Love List party!  Reading everyone else&#039;s lists always makes me smile. =)

My love list:
1. Road trip!  The first leg of our vacation was spent in the *upper* Upper Peninsula of Michigan; we&#039;ve hit Milwaukee and Madison in the past 24 hours to see friends and relatives; we&#039;re currently in the Chicago &#039;burbs with my family; and we&#039;re ending with a few days in Iowa with my best friend, before trekking home next weekend.

2. Buying local maple syrup from the dude that actually tapped/processed it in the U.P..  We bought a gallon of the stuff to take home with us, which should easily last us until our annual U.P. vacation next summer.

3.  Interviewing Nina for the vegansaurus veggie kids series.  I try *so* hard not to put any judgmental spin on our veganism, and it was eye-opening to hear her four and a half-year old perspective on being vegan.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[hey... I&#039;ve been a lurker on your blog for over a year now, and this is my first comment!  First of all I&#039;d like to say that your blog is an inspiration for me to stay on track with living a more sustainable lifestyle and appreciating the simple things in life. 
My current love list:
1.The bounty at the farmers market.  There are usually slim pickins most of the year in upstate NY, but we&#039;re in full swing now!
2.My job.  I work at a great co-op and get to cook delicious vegetarian food all day long..and I get paid for it!
