editrx's Cookbook!

[azriona]

Right, so....as some of you are aware, I've been forced volunteered to help edit the cookbook for editrx. This will be seriously entertaining, because I've never actually written a cookbook before. But I'm game to try.

I'm going to probably be spamming you several times a week for the next several weeks. My recipes are really my own and I don't have the amounts in my head, so I'll have to note amounts when I make them next.

Will there be a vegetarian section?

Also, you might want to look into create Google Forms to help you keep all this stuff in a database without having to copypasta everything or enter it by hand.

Oh, the heartache of it.

Will there be a vegetarian section?

It depends entirely on how many vegetarian recipes we get. If nothing else, I'm happy to mark recipes as vegetarian/vegan/dairy/whatever.

Yeah...I'm not overly familiar with Google Forms. I might have to test it out when it comes to the recipe testing, at least, especially if there are edits involved. I know there's been some Google Forming with keeping track of who's doing what already.

It worked fabulously for the remix, and now I am *all about* using forms whenever I need to get specific information from internet denizens.

Are you going to include some joke recipes? Like that really aawesome one with a bottle of whiskey and every 2nd instruction is to test the whiskey for quality? That would be a hysterical addition to the cookbook :)

[azriona]

We're thinking probably not. You're welcome to send it in, but if we have a lot of recipes, we might not use it.

(But yes, I like that recipe too. I suspect there are people who would want to test it, certainly.)

YAY!

This sounds like a lot of fun and I'll be going through my family recipe book for some choice selections :)

Might I suggest that, if you decide to use photographs as art, to have the recipe-testers take them if they were not included? It will kill two birds with one stone!

Yup, that's listed in the recipe tester section above - it's why I ask if the tester has a digital camera! :) Ah, the things you never knew were part of a well-stocked kitchen.....

Haha. Pardon me, my brain is a bit muddled from working with The Glass Menagerie today. I totally read that. :)

[azriona]

Oh, I haven't read The Glass Menagerie in ages. Not one of my faves, but not bad. And will certainly turn your brain to goo. :)

I look forward to this. I'll donate a few recipes and test some as well :D

You've got mail (one of two, actually).

Regarding 3--I can't draw to save my life, but I can take pictures. Lots, and lots, and lots of pictures.
