 * I don’t quite understand your question. Could you re-phrase?

 * When writing your post, make two “enters” so there is a blank space between paragraphs.
   That way WordPress will now that this needs to have a paragraph tag put there.
   Otherwise, it puts a single line break.
 * So your would look like what I’ve just written, with an empty space between the
   paragraphs. That should fix it.

 * Ah, I took another look. You have a `<p>` tag in there, you just don’t have it“
   styled”.
 * In your `style.css` style sheet file, add this:
 * `.post p {margin: 5px 0px 5px}`
 * And then play with it to get the effect you want.

 * The paragraph tags are there.
 * Something is *squishing up* your paragraphs, but a cursory check of your css 
   didn’t show where it lies, but I’d suggest adding this to your stylesheet:
 * `.post p {
    margin-bottom: 1em; }
