If you only want a certain number of articles retrieved, based on the input parameter you supply from BlogFeeds(), you could try something like this:

foreach (XmlNode item1 in items)
            {
                int currentIterationIndex = 0;

                foreach (XmlNode node1 in item1.ChildNodes)
                {
                    if(currentIterationIndex >= count -1)
                    {
                        continue; //or break; would probably be better.
                    }

                    if (node1.Name == "title")
                    {
                        rssDC.Title = node1.InnerText;
                    }
                    else if (node1.Name == "link")
                    {
                        rssDC.Link = node1.InnerText;
                    }
                    else if(node1.Name == "guid")
                    {
                        rssDC.RSS_ID = node1.InnerText;
                    }
                    else if (node1.Name == "description")
                    {
                        rssDC.Description = node1.InnerText;
                    }
                    else if (node1.Name == "pubDate")
                    {
                        rssDC.DatePublished = node1.InnerText;
                    }

                    currentIterationIndex += 1;
                }
                rssDC = RssBAL.AddRssFeed(rssDC);


            }

        }
