		<title>A Day at the Fair &#8211; Part Three: Pigeons!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After the Camel Dairy demo at the fair, we headed into the agriculture building to see what was going on there. A few ladies were spinning yarn from llama hair (and apparently trimming the llamas as the day went on): And then we saw the people carving a butter sculpture. It was a bit weird, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hoppyokapi.com&amp;blog=3246619&amp;post=1466&amp;subd=aerialokapi&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<title>A Day at the Fair &#8211; Part Two: Camel Dairy!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yes, the camel dairy demonstration gets its own post! I had seen the camel dairy ranch from the road when we drove to Palomar Mountain for backpacking in May, and so was very excited to learn more about it. Gil and Nancy, the owners of the camel dairy, had three camels with them at the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hoppyokapi.com&amp;blog=3246619&amp;post=1462&amp;subd=aerialokapi&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<title>A Day at the Fair &#8211; Part One</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After years(!) of thinking, &#8220;Hmmm, we should go to the fair sometime&#8221;, and then managing to miss it despite the almost month-long engagement, I finally got to spend a day at the San Diego county fair.   One of the keys to the trip was transportation &#8211; freeway traffic approaching Del Mar during the fair [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hoppyokapi.com&amp;blog=3246619&amp;post=1413&amp;subd=aerialokapi&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<title>Everything&#8217;s Coming Up Dill: Our First CSA Share</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our neighborhood farmers market, the Little Italy Mercato, has been going strong for over a year now, tempting me every Saturday morning with just-harvested fruits and vegetables, fresh eggs, cheeses, jams and even sea salts. Even though I don&#8217;t quite make it to the Mercato every weekend, I&#8217;ve tried quite a few new fruits and [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hoppyokapi.com&amp;blog=3246619&amp;post=1379&amp;subd=aerialokapi&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<title>Bikes and BBQ</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Chuck and I ushered in the month of May with bikes! I read about the Barrio Logan Grand Prix a few weeks ago and thought it would be fun to watch, and we had a Groupon for Lil Piggy&#8217;s BBQ in Coronado, so we decided to bike to the Grand Prix in the morning, then [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hoppyokapi.com&amp;blog=3246619&amp;post=1345&amp;subd=aerialokapi&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<title>Honey Whole-Wheat Bread</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Whether due to pure tastiness or a boost of nostalgia, this is probably my favorite bread recipe. I learned to bake bread by helping in my Grandma&#8217;s kitchen on the weekends when I was young, and this is the whole wheat recipe that we made. I think it can be enjoyed even by people who [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hoppyokapi.com&amp;blog=3246619&amp;post=1311&amp;subd=aerialokapi&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<title>Bonus Zoo Baby! Somali Wild Ass</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At the Wild Animal Park last weekend to see the baby okapi, I also stopped by the Animal Care Center near the petting kraal, where some of the baby animals born at the park are cared for before being returned to their exhibits or sent to other zoos. There were a couple of cute babies [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hoppyokapi.com&amp;blog=3246619&amp;post=1307&amp;subd=aerialokapi&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<title>Wild Animal Park &#8211; Baby Okapi!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In mid-November, one of the San Diego Zoo newsletters announced the October birth of Uche, the latest baby okapi at the Wild Animal Park. Today we finally had a chance to spend a morning in Escondido to go see him for ourselves. It was a chilly but clear morning- probably 60 degrees or so when [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hoppyokapi.com&amp;blog=3246619&amp;post=1270&amp;subd=aerialokapi&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<title>Adventures In Sourdough VIII: San Diego Bay Sourdough Starter</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Number 20 on my semi-neglected 101 Things list: create a sourdough starter from scratch. Last month, with cool weather and nice breezes flowing in from the bay, I decided the timing was perfect. Eschewing the more complicated-sounding grape-containing starter in my Nancy Silverton book, I looked to The Bread Bible by Rose Levy Beranbaum for [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hoppyokapi.com&amp;blog=3246619&amp;post=1245&amp;subd=aerialokapi&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
