The last solution is not good because (as I learnt the hard way) sometimes the designs might have, for example, your side menu text first.Then all your descriptions in your google serps will have the menu text in them.And a good description on the serps might be what gets the surfer clicking to your blog.

I use this plugin that lets me write the meta description tag, or if I´m lazy it just takes the first sentences of the post for the description:
