New Features for Recipes
Great additions Andrew! I'm back after a wee break and it's lovely to see all the additions you've made. I just entered my first recipe and it worked well except when I tried to go back after and edit one of the ingredients, it didn…

Newest Challenge: The Moosewood Cookbook
I just want to say thanks to all you devoted cookbookers who wrote so many great reviews for the challenge! I'm so impressed with how many recipes you were able to cook.

Some of my reviews are from borrowed library books as well so that's a good idea.

Newest Challenge: The Moosewood Cookbook
Andrew, I would like to participate but do not own the cookbook and my library copy may be a few weeks in coming. Do you have any sample recipes listed that I could try?

cadfael, I have a copy of Jaffrey's World Vegetarian on it's way to me this week. I know one or two other people expressed interest in cooking from this book as well so maybe we could do a little unnoficial, mini, side challenge? Or, it…

Darn, I would have loved Madhur Jaffrey's World Vegetarian. I'll get the Moosewood from the library and hope that it's not too dairy heavy. I've been so looking forward to participating in a challenge.

Andrew, I love your ideas too! Another thing, I was just reading one of LazyLurker/Queezle sister's reviews and I wanted to make a comment or ask her a question but there's no way to do that. Could that feature be added in as well?

I like this idea too! If you have multiple chocolate chip cookie recipes, you could compare or check out the reviews/ratings for each and pick the one you want.

Maybe there could be a place to link similar recipes or have a field that says "if you like this recipe you might like......" Something like that?

I'm anxiously awaiting to hear which veggie cookbook we will be doing for the next challenge! I have a gift certificate left over from Christmas I can put to good use if it's one I don't already own.

New Feature: Private Notes
Andrew, are we able to add private notes if we are just indexing a recipe? I think it would be useful. I like to use the index to keep track of what I'm planning to make and I like to make notes about special ingredients that may be needed w…

How do you store and organise your herbs and spices?
Andrew, I have ordered organic spices from http://www.mountainroseherbs.com/ in the past and been happy.

Andrew, while in the forum I have wanted to look at another member's profile and reviews but when I click on their name I can't access their profile. It takes me to a page where I can send them a message but that's not what I want. …

Andrew, how about Veganomicon for a challenge? 52 members own that one and I would like to explore it more. I looked up the Zuni Cafe book you have been referring to but it's not vegetarian.

How do you organize your cookbooks?
Andrew, sorry I didn't see your comment until now. I'm in the middle of moving. I would LOVE to be able to create custom bookshelves within my shelf here instead of having all my cookbooks lumped together. Sorry I don't know the …

Essential Cookbook
I'm happy to hear that others are open to participating in a challenge using a vegetarian cookbook. And I agree with wester's comment about there being loads of inspirational ones about nowadays. I've only been vegan for 10 months…

How do you organize your cookbooks?
I put up a couple of shelves on the wall in my kitchen and place there the cookbooks I use the most. The rest are grouped generally by type on other bookcases. I also use an online site called GoodReads to organize, tag and shelve my cookbooks.…

Andrew, do you think there's a chance you would ever do a challenge for a vegetarian cookbook? I notice a lot of people on this site own How To Cook Everything Vegetarian but there are very few recipe reviews for it. I'm a vegetarian (…

Andrew, I use the recipe folder for recipes that I haven't made yet and want to try. Is this the favourites folder you are referring to? It would be nice to have more than one folder, one for favourites and one for recipes I haven't ma…

Andrew, one thing I can think of off the top of my head would be the ability to sort and view our recipes by category. For example, sometimes I'm looking for a cake recipe but don't want to look through the contents of every book I own. …
