		<title>Eating Bangles</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Being around my 7 month old daughter brings out the poetic force in me. I find myself speaking to her in riddles and rhymes and sometimes I feel like I&#8217;m living inside a musical because I burst into made up songs and show tunes so many times during the day. I wonder whether other parents [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I didn&#8217;t know what to expect of the on stage musical adaptation of Uma Krishnaswami&#8217;s picture book &#8220;Chachaji&#8217;s Cup&#8221; this past weekend.Â  The program billed it as &#8220;Bollywood style,&#8221; a label that automatically leaves me slightly wary. Turns out I was more than pleasantly surprised. The one-hour production, aimed at audiences ages 8 and up, [...]]]></description>
