 * I was able to do this by hacking the widgets.php file. Make a backup of the existing
   file and try it on a local server to see if it works.
 * Open widgets.php and search for the function wp_widget_recent_entries. Move down
   a few lines until you see a line called
    `<?php echo $before_title . $title .
   $after_title; ?>` My file had that at line 919. Then insert the following code
   on the next line, before the line that just has `<ul>` in it. What you insert
   will be hardcoded to your site’s RSS feed, so you will need to change the code
   accordingly. `<a href="http://thenameofyoursite.com/feed/" title="RSS Feed for
   Blog Entries" class="feedlink"><span>RSS</span></a>`
 * Then save the file and see if it suits your needs.
 * Good luck.
