This tool lets you enter cuisine, ingredient, and mood (!) and then produces a recipe suggestion. Turkish + gratifying yielded Imam Bayildi, which seems a little obvious, but maybe that's my fault for choosing those two parameters...
Anyway, don't have time to use Cookthink today, but maybe this weekend. If you use it successfully (as in, it suggests something, you make and consume it, and it produces the sought-after emotional response), let me know.
1. I heard a DJ this morning say that Spoon sounds "like early Billy Joel." I am not making this up.
2. The mixed berry tart with pastry cream in Cook's is fantastic, as is my live-in pastry chef.
3. In two weeks we're going to see New Pornographers, which will require staying out late. Can we do it? Stay tuned.
4. I now have a lovely little office with a ca. 1960 terrazzo floor and a floor-to-ceiling window onto a courtyard. I feel very lucky, and not just because of its mid-century stylishness.
