Hmm. I think I would only race if I wasn't drinking tasty brewery beer :)

Very wise, very wise. By the way, your account of the joy your knives have given you inspire me to follow suit. We have one nice knife and I should probably get it professionally sharpened and then maintain the blade better. Also, I could use a good pairing knife and a serrated bread knife. I too share your love for cooking.

Tonight I sautéed some shallots in butter then added some tempe and minced jalapeño. I combined the tempeh with some black beans and salsa and put it between two tortillas with some cheese. I topped the quesadillas with a cold salad of romaine, tomatillos, cherry tomato's, jalapeños, lime juice, lemon juice, salt, pepper and a dash of sugar. It was a really refreshing meal. I took this photo because I've been trading vegetarian recipes with zmagma. ecib, if you have any to share I am all ears. Love trying new things.

Is there password retrieval?
dbingham  ·  4545 days ago  ·  link  ·  
Not yet. It's been on the todo list for a while, but I haven't tackled it. I think it's clearly needed though. There's a bug that I feel like I've fixed two or three times that causes people's passwords to be reset when they edit their profiles. I should have password retrieval done by early tomorrow afternoon. And that bug fixed shortly after that.

I only ask because I've forgotten mine. Good luck with it, let me know when it's up and I'll log back in and drop the recipe.

Alright, that took me somewhat longer than I'd hoped. But the bug is now fixed, password retrieval is implemented and the site has been updated. Try it out and let me know!

I posted it but I'm not sure I did so properly. It wasn't obvious to me where to post the picture of the dish. Just an fyi.

Thanks for posting it! Yeah, you didn't quite do it right. In short form ingredients need to each have their separate line (not be comma separated). If you log in, you can edit it. Just copy and past each ingredient into it's own ingredient field (you can add a new one by clicking "add an ingredient" in the upper right corner of the ingredients area). You can add an image after you've edited by clicking the Fridge to Food logo where the image would normally be and going to the gallery.

Rewriting the submission forms and process is the next big item on the todo list. I'm going to try to find a way to make it easier and more clear. I want to retain the detail I have, but it seems to confuse a lot of people.

Let me know when you update the UI and I'll try it again with a fresh pair of eyes and let you know if it is more intuitive. I'm happy to help out as a "test account", plus I like the idea.

Shun bread knife and paring knife. I have a Henckel's set of their Professional 'S' series, which is by all accounts a very good set, but I had a friend buy me a Shun Chef's knife and it blew the Henckel's out of the water.

I LOVE tomatillos. Thanks for the recipe!

You've got it and dbingham is right, we should post these to Fridge to Food.
