		<title>Books: Luck in the Shadows (Lynn Flewelling)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ah, the realm of fantasy, where man never develops technology beyond the broadsword and the cloak, where magic brews, necromancers terrorize and the Elven are always beautiful. I&#8217;ve spent many an hour in that world. I can&#8217;t say for sure what lures me there repeatedly; I suppose it&#8217;s both a simpler and more interesting time [...]]]></description>

		<title>Books: A Wrinkle in Time (Madeleine L&#8217;Engle)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I loved these books as a kid and devoured the whole series. As a tribute to the 50th anniversary of the book, then, I decided to take a walk down memory lane and read it for old time&#8217;s sake. (I&#8217;ve been reading quite a few young adult books lately, and though this was totally worth [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dining Review: Rosie&#8217;s Diner</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I didn’t live through the 1950s. Not by a long shot. Still, I recognize all of the hot rod-driving, poodle skirt-wearing, jukeboxed and ponytailed stereotypes about the era when I see them. Rosie’s Diner conjures that classic “American Graffiti” feel, with enough ’50s flair to outfit an episode of “Happy Days.” Many folks probably remember [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dining Reviews: Peak Grill</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We all have guilty pleasures, things we think are perhaps beneath us that we can’t help loving anyway. The Peak Grill, at Garden of the Gods Road and Centennial Boulevard, is becoming one of mine. This diner makes me feel as if I’m in my grandmother’s kitchen, where she stands ready with a carton of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dining Review: Pegasus</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At more than 8,400 feet above sea level, Woodland Park is known as the city above the clouds, which makes it a fitting home for Pegasus Mediterranean Café, named after the winged horse of Greek mythology. While it doesn’t rise to the level of magical, the 9-month-old Greek restaurant adds diversity to Woodland Park’s culinary [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dining Review: Sushi Rakkyo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[All-you-can-eat usually means sneeze-guard-protected buffets that focus on quantity rather than quality, and can be an especially troubling concept for sushi, a cuisine in which quality and freshness is paramount. Nothing is troubling, however, about Sushi Rakkyo, and in fact, feel free to leave all your worldly troubles at the door. Instead of feeling crass, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Books: Garlic and Sapphires (Ruth Reichl)</title>

Not that it&#8217;s likely I get thrown into the path of a former New York Times food critic, best-selling author (&#8220;Tender at the Bone&#8221; and &#8220;Comfort me with Apples,&#8221; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dining Review: Liquid Cheer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Home is where the heart is during the holiday season, and it’s also the setting for many holiday culinary traditions. When it comes to libations, on the other hand, ’tis the season for going out for casual get-togethers with family and friends, often gathered around beverages — hot or cold, alcoholic or caffeinated or both.

		<title>Dining Review: Pho-N-Thai</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I’m not one to complain that there’s too much on my plate (that’s why we have to-go boxes) but one of my most common restaurant complaints is that they have too much on theirs — overextending their menu in pursuit of quantity rather than quality. Pho-N-Thai is sadly one of those more-N-more offenders. Had they [...]]]></description>
