			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well I&#8217;ve been wanting to do this for a while, and it looks like it&#8217;s coming closer to being a reality.</p>
<p>Sean and I are planning on releasing a professionally printed expansion pack for <a href="http://tremorworks.com/elementalis">ElementaliS</a>.  While the expansions have been free to download and print yourself (they still will be, by the way) you soon will be able to get a manufactured set that matches the quality of the base set.</p>
<p>So what&#8217;s going to be included in the pack?</p>
<p><a href="http://boardgamegeek.com/game/29595">ElementaliS: Creationists and Elitists</a><br />
<a href="http://boardgamegeek.com/game/34712">ElementaliS: Chaotica and Cultists</a><br />
<a href="http://boardgamegeek.com/game/35724">ElementaliS: Guardians and Luminaries</a><br />
A brand new, full color, updated ElementaliS rulebook.</p>
<p>Because of production costs, we&#8217;re shooting to keep it aroun $9.99 USD.</p>
<p>More to come soon.</p>
<p>If you have any questions, feel free to stop by the <a href="http://tremorworks.com/tremorboard">Tremorworks Forums</a>.</p>

I used to love Shrinky Dinks when I was a kid.  Now I can share that enjoyment with my own children (once they&#8217;re a bit older).
I can&#8217;t wait.  I may have to try this out soon, you know, just to make sure it&#8217;s really as cool as I remember.
Of course.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Geeky, I know.  I found the recipe <a href="http://www.entropyhouse.com/penwiper/costumes/lembas.html">here</a>. (no I did not make a leaf case for these.)</p>
<p>2 1/2 cups of flour<br />
1 Tablespoon baking powder<br />
1/4 teaspoon salt<br />
8 Tablespoons cold butter<br />
1/3 cup sugar<br />
2/3 cup milk<br />
1/2 teaspoon lemon extract</p>
<p>Preheat over to 425 degrees.</p>
<p>Mix flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Chop butter into mixture with a pastry cutter or knead in with your fingers until you get a crumbly mixture. Add sugar and mix. Add milk and lemon extract and stir with a fork until dough forms.</p>
<p>Roll the dough out about 1/2 inch thick. Cut out 3 inch squares and transfer to a cookie sheet. Criss-cross each square from corner to corner with a knife. Bake for about 12 minutes or until set and lightly golden. Makes 10 to 12.</p>

This may be some of the best news ever.
I&#8217;ve always been a HUGE fan of the Fraggles.  I still have every episode of the original series AND the cartoon series on VHS somewhere.  Recently we started renting the DVDs from Netflix for the kids to enjoy.
I&#8217;m seriously excited by this.
