Five Forks Food

| | Comments (0) |

Introducing (or really re-introducing) Five Forks Food, a recipe database that is a special "community blog" format supported by Movable Type. In theory, any member of Mac5 can contribute recipes or add comments. I'm still figuring it out.

You will find a link titled "FOOD" in the upper right corner of Mac5.

These are recipes Kathy typed into our Macintosh many years ago in a Hypercard Stack. She references them all the time. Later I converted them from HyperCard to a Lotus Notes Domino database that could be used on the web. (It is still here for the moment.)

A random set of recipes is published on the home page every 10 minutes.

Lost in translation are the 1 - 5 Fork ratings. I likely will have to key those by hand. You can look by category, look by name under the "All" link, or do a search on a word using the search field. For example: Search for bourbon.

If you make any of these, take a picture and send it to me. I'll embed the photo in the recipe!

New Office (Mac's view)

| | Comments (2) |

I've moved out of the legendary "Sam's office" and into an office around the corner. I needed to let Heather take the helm and oversee grand central station.

My MacBook has a built in camera. This is the "Mac's view" of my office. I have my desk against a bare wall for now. As you can see... I could use some color. Kathy's "401k" is the most I have so far.

Movable Type 4.3

Upgraded mac5 to Movable Type 4.3 primarily to support a random entry plugin for Five Forks Food.

Looks like Image::Magick (default thumbnailer) is working with this upgrade. I had mt-config set to use NetBPM.
