Day100 - If it's free, I like it.

Wednesday, April 9, 2008: My office: Measuring Cup.

First, let's give a big whooohoooo for 100 straight days of NEW. Awesome! Almost done.

Today, I spilled a load of water down the fridge across stacks of recipes recipes taped and tucked behind magnets on the fridge. I decided enough was enough and I looked for a free program to keep track of all of them. I found two: Measuring Cup and Yum.

I am using Measuring Cup because the interface was more appealing to me. You can add calorie/nutrition info as well as photos. If you need, you can then print out all the recipes in on nice long list. It also has a drop down menu of common abbreviations, such as tsp and g. Very cool. Here is a screen shot.




Yum has more exporting features as well as drop down menus for commonly used ingredients and the ability to make shopping lists. I may switch over in the future, but for right now I kinda like what I got.
