A Thought on Digital Recipes
I just tried MacGourmet 2 and Measuring Cup but there are two big problems with both:
I have to enter the recipes myself. While this sucks, I’d do it if there was good reason/the interface was nice enough.
I have to have recipes to enter. This is why online recipe sites win hands down right now. Collective recipe collection + ratings & reviews.
Now that I’m thinking about it, someone could probably make some good money if they wrote an iPhone app that interfaced with Epicurious to discover recipes, stored your ‘personal cookbook’ locally and allowed you to create a shopping list from certain meals you want to make soon.
Ikea is now charging for normal plastic bags. Good for them!

Tumblr Radar loves me!

The Big Picture is one of the best new blogs around. This post is a perfect example why. Simply splendid.
The inhalation brought the damp cloths tight against my nostrils, as if a huge, wet paw had been suddenly and annihilatingly clamped over my face. Unable to determine whether I was breathing in or out, and flooded more with sheer panic than with mere water, I triggered the pre-arranged signal and felt the unbelievable relief of being pulled upright and having the soaking and stifling layers pulled off me.
