		<description><![CDATA[I do love a good &#8220;toy&#8221; movie, and this one is the best one I&#8217;ve seen in a long time. The quasi-stop motion technique really works well and the modeling and photography are superb. This could have easily ended up like a bad Robot Chicken sequence, but the effective use of still photos and minimal [...]]]></description>

The church sales are basically small flea markets, where a bunch of people get together in a parking lot to sell their items along with a bunch of stuff that was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There were plenty of yard sales this weekend, but I wasn&#8217;t able to hit them until after 11:00AM again, so the pickings were already pretty well picked by the time I got there. I found a few fun items, including an E.T. doll and a Prince Adam He-Man action figure. The surprise of the day [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am blessed with two wonderful sons who are just getting into superheroes and action figures. After watching the Avengers cartoon and seeing all the hype for the upcoming movie, my youngest started carrying around an Iron Man action figure (which just warmed dear old dad&#8217;s heart). The other day he told me that Iron [...]]]></description>

The fun continues here with the addition of the trees&#8230; Insulation foam is a great material for dioramas because it is so easy to work with. After doing a little yard [...]]]></description>

Liquid Nails was used to glue down pieces of pink 1&#8243; foam board, to make the contours of a hill. Once the glue [...]]]></description>

I have just been having too much fun&#8230; Just by moving the light sources around slightly, I got some dramatically different results.
