Queezle Sister
This picture shows Queezle, a quail who lived with us for a year. She because our friend (not dinner), but eventually a wild male courted her through the window, and so she returned to the wild.

my personal cookbooker challenge
Leek and SelahWrites -- I will try to borrow Veganomicon from my library again. So nice to have you on board. I mostly set this up to force myself to work through my cookbook inventory. I have variable success, but by being public about my need …

my personal cookbooker challenge
After my sister signed up for cookbooker, she convinced me it would be fun if we both changed our log-in names to include "sister". Sorry for the confusion -- Andrew, if you'd like to change my name in this part to Queezle Sister, th…

Leeka and SelahWrites - I don't have those books, but it would be fun to join a cooking effort with both of you. I'm largely plant diet (with occasional concessions for my family), and I'll definitely take you up on your offer to veg…

Andrew (and you other cookbooker friends), I am not sure what to select as "course type" if I'm making fruit - such as applesauce, or what I'm making now, roasted rhubarb. Maybe they could be a sauce? Or do we need a fruit cate…

SelahWrites - so great to have you here on cookbooker. For me, this is a great community and it has led to better, and healthier, eating.

Seriously fun, this article from Huffington Post caught my eye because they noticed how odd people from Utah really are... (ok, maybe not all of us). http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/06/02/google-correlate-food-data_n_869697.html Searching googl…

Love the new features, Andrew. I accidentally wrote the wrong recipe name, and was so glad to be able to correct it myself. And I got a nice note from AJ on one of my reviews - such fun. Thanks.

My daughter and I both love this idea. Everyone is included, and we can get some new good ideas for the grill.

I am QS's ( or LL) 12 year old daughter. I personally feel that all the resent challenges are mostly vegetarian, and I think that I speak for both my dad and myself when i say, why not do a bar-b-que cookbook for the month of July? I think that…

Not really a site improvement - but I found a cookbook with an inaccurate title in the database. It is ISBN: 0688123260, the title is "Great Vegetarian Cooking Under Pressure", but in the database it just comes up as "Great Vegetaria…

I guess we need to all be helping here by adding the ingredients. I noticed that EYB does not include quantity - but Andrew has this site set up to include quantity. If you, like me, plan you dinner while you are at work and stop at the store on y…

Wester - that is a good idea - using both sites. I think it might really help me on my personal cookbooker challenge (using all my cookbooks at least some) - I've started a free account, and will enter the three cookbooks I'm trying to co…

I was feeling quite unloved for a little while - thanks for the explanation - and I'll not take it personally.

Sturlington - awesome! I got so involved with the smitten kitchen challenge I have not been pursuing my own challenge recently. You have revived my interest in moving through my cookbooks, and I'll have to figure out which ones I was working …

Ouch! OK, work toward a fee-based version! I do love this site, and yes, a modest fee would be tolerated. Oh - and I wonder if a conversion could easily be incorporated into the ingredients - that is if someone entered 1C flour, a really smart …

That is great - I do think an ingredients feature could be very useful. Also I favor funding by advertisements - I have no problem ignoring them - I tend to not buy too many on-line content features (but of course I recognize there are costs involve…

I was wondering if the two fields were so they would be displayed as beautifully lined up ingredient lists, much like a cookbook. Hmmm. And if a recipe called for 1 medium, in the review we might say "I used a 9 oz potato and the result was…

I was so happy to see some user names that were unfamiliar - and hopefully are new cookbookers! So great to read the interesting reviews, and I'm pleased that some of them won!

I'm a little confused about adding ingredients. I see four boxes on two lines, but across the top are four heading -- quantity - ingredients - imperial - metric. Are the four boxes for one ingredient? I started to enter some ingredients for …

This was a lot of fun (and calories...). Thanks - I tried a lot of things that I would not have otherwise. Of course, I'm already itching to know what will be next! LL/QS

Measurements
It sounds like your crumble was awesome (and how do I embed a link like that, anyhow?). Although I've always used our stupid cups, I recently baked something where I weighed the dry ingredients, and it was so much easier!

That is an amazing asparagus article - thanks so much for providing the link. I especially enjoyed Bittman's discussion of thin versus thick. I, too, am typically drawn to the very finest of think asparagus, but recently surprised myself by e…

For me, a dish like this is so different from baking a cake - where precise measurements really matter. I would guess that you could use a lot more - and somewhat less - and still have a very respectable crumble. Really, this dish is two separate …

He did blanch it, wrap it, and grilled it. It tasted pretty good, a big tough tough. I'll look at that Mark Bittman article - thanks! I lived in Germany (Pottsdam) for 6 months, and in the spring I was impressed by all the little stands with…
