Food Fights: The Biggest Culinary Scandals Of 2011
Famous Death Row Last Meals
After a while, if you spend enough time reading food blogs, your computer is going to become a sort of virtual cookbook as you add more and more recipes to your list of favorites. Unless you keep your computer in the kitchen, though, you're still going to have to rely on good, old-fashioned cookbooks (or printed pages) as references. This reliance on the printed recipe probably won't always be the case, as designer Philipp Gilgen, a student at the University of Applied Sciences in Northwestern Switzerland, has just invented a digital cookbook that perfectly suits the kitchen environment. The coo.boo. is shaped like a spatula and synchs with a personal computer via a wireless docking station to download recipes, how-tos and other content. The digital "cookbook" is sturdy, washable and can be stored with regular kitchen appliances so that it is always on hand. It is still in a prototype stage, but it may not be too long before we see a real release, as there is sure to be a demand for such a handy tool/reference.

and I keep a lot of recipes on my laptop.
kewl.

It fits nicely on my cookbook holder and sits on the top shelf of a small baker's rack. That device looks cool, but I like the option of searching the web and storing recipies on the latop. I can also browse SlashFood for great ideas! Now, even though I'm an uber-geek (7 computers of various types in an 8 room house) I still cannot lose my passion for a bound cook book. I have my original Joy of Cooking that I got as a wedding present, and it is absolutely indespensible! I also like to pick up cookbooks from garage sales and library book sales.
