I'm just learning MongoDB and MongoMapper. This is on Rails 3.

I created a blog in app/models/blog.rb:

class Blog
  include MongoMapper::Document

  key :title, String, :required => true
  key :body, Text
  timestamps!
end

I go into the Rails console:

rails c

Loading development environment (Rails 3.0.0.beta)
ruby-1.9.1-p378 > **b = Blog.new**
NoMethodError: undefined method `from_mongo' for Text:Module

    from /Users/jade/code/farmerjade/script/rails:10:in `<main>'

Am I overlooking something really dumb, or is this something in my setup?

I'm using the mongo_mapper version you get by adding it to your Gemfile, so I'm wondering if it might be that. I'd appreciate any suggestions!
