A cleaner way might be to use array_merge instead of extract because 
you can more easily return an arrray.

function sanitize ( $args ) {
   $argsDefault = array (
           'title' => date ('r'),
           'link' => "http://blog.scriptdigital.com",
           'description' => "Whatever...",
           'category' =>  "Out of the box");

     $args = array_merge ($argsDefault, $args);
     return $args;
}

$item = array (
       'link' => "http://apple.com",
       'description' => "Apple web site.");

$cleanItem = sanitize ( $item );

$xmlItem = "";
foreach ($cleanItem as $xmltag => $val) {
   $xmlItem .= "<$xmltag>$val</$xmltag>\
";
}

echo $xmlItem;
