First, because I sometimes use it for inspiration, is the Mr. Bento photo pool from Flickr:
I use three recipe management programs: BigOven, Living Cookbook 2003 and MasterCook 11. Any recipe that I consider to be 'mine' or heavily revised by me will begin with 'ec' moniker and will be posted on the BigOven community recipe site. At least they will be once I consider them finished, more or less. Recipes that I consider works-in-progress may or may not be, it'll just depend.
Section 1: The recipes
I've used these recipes in a lunch. The recipes with the 'ec' prefix are ones I've posted on the BigOven recipe site.
Section 2: Stuff I use
These are the items I use regularly when making or packing lunch. I've linked to the manufacturer's web site where possible.
Mr Bento Lunch Jar
Various Fit & Fresh food containers
Polar Bear Cooler
Cuisinart 7-cup Food Processor
Section 3: Web Sites and RSS Feeds
These are web sites I sometime get lunchtime ideas from. Most of them I follow through RSS Feeds using Google Reader via FeedR on my Motorola Droid.
Section 4: Cookbooks
As may be expected from someone who lists reading and eating as their two favorite activities I have way to many cookbooks. I keep telling myself not to buy any more, but I keep giving way to temptation. I mean why buy a cookbook now-a-days? I mean, there are approximately 50 lifetime's worth of recipes on the internet.
The pictures, the stories, the hows and whys, even the narrow focus of the specialty cookbooks all of these keep me coming back for more.
One of my favorite cookbooks is Welcome to Junior's! Remembering Brooklyn With Recipes and Memories from Its Favorite Restaurant. It is interesting to read and has a great Cheesecake recipe.
Section 5: Leftovers
Everything that doesn't fit in any of the above sections.
Thanks for reading my blog. Kenneth (aka elusivecritter and mobcritter)
