  I saw a great example given recently at a conference:

  UI = the spoon and the bowl
  UX = the process using the spoon and the bowl to eat cereal

  Keep in mind that UX and UI "design" mean different things to different people. To some people, conceptualizing the solution, making wireframes, making prototypes is design. And that's correct - you are DESIGNING something. But to others, the visual design that comes after the UX phase in a project is design. They intend "design" to only mean graphic/visual design.
