Wow .. I cant beleive that Jesus hasnt replied yet .. ;-) .. So I'll start

Sorry for missing the meeting, as a closet MacGourmet user, there are some good places to go to get recipe content --

1) http://www.e...com/recipes/ -- Epicurious -- seems to be one of the best sites out there, and to top it off, it has great participation from REAL CHEF's.

2) There used to be a company out of Austin TX (we're talking '92-'94 here) that was a MAC software house. They wrote one of the first versions for MASTERCOOK (the company's name started with an "A" and I was a beta tester for them). They since sold their product to SIERRA SOFTWARE which steered it to the Windows market and the Mac Version Languished. Sierra grew the versions for a while then the company went through a management buyout and spun off several lines of their software. The MASTERCOOK package went to a company called VALUESOFT and they continue to market it today.

What was "special" about MASTERCOOK (and there was a few other contenders in that marketspace at the time), is that it took a different approach to describing and formatting a "recipe" to something that was more digestible (sorry) for computer data formats. Even to this day, one of the better data interchange formats for recipe data is in MASTERCOOK formats (V4,V5, ..). I'm sure that Jesus covered this, but MacGourmet imports / exports this dataformat just fine.

That being said, there are BEAUCOUPS of websites and Groups out there that swap recipe information in the MC format. Check these out:

http://group.../MasterCook/
http://group...Veg-Recipes/
http://group...WWWCrockpot/
http://group...mastercooks/ (<== kinda dead but has some interesting recipes there)

Ok -- that's my .25 worth .. anyone else care to share?

Sounds good. I took a few at the Art Institute. I recommend the sushi class. The Vietnamese one looks good too.

I've taken some pretty good cooking classes at this place. They have two locations now, I think, but I've only been to the one near Piedmont Park.
