Almost a year ago we purchased a Touchsmart PC by HP for our kitchen to run my recipe software, Chef. It has been a great addition to the kitchen and is a perfect match for the software. HP recently revamped the machine with the latest model, and it looks pretty darn cool. If you’re looking [...]

Some Chef Updates
April 1st, 2008 · 1 Comment · General
Just a few Chef notes… A couple weeks ago I reported that I had gotten rid of SWREG in favor of E-Junkie with PayPal and Google Checkout. Since then I’ve processed a couple of orders successfully so it’s good to know I didn’t break anything. That’s always a concern of mine when I make changes [...]

Bye Bye SWREG
March 16th, 2008 · 4 Comments · General
A little over a year ago I posted about Payment Processors for taking payment for Chef. Shortly thereafter I went ahead and signed up and integrated with SWREG. Over the past year I have been pretty happy with them regarding the capabilities they provided, as well as their prices – I’ve been able to accept [...]
Chef 1.3
February 8th, 2008 · Comments Off · General
Chef version 1.3 is released! The big change in this release was the conversion over to a tag-based system for Categories (both Recipe Categories and Ingredient Categories). So now instead of going to a separate tab and drag-dropping a recipe into categories, you just type the categries in as a comma-separated list. For example: “eric’s [...]

This is going to be fairly heavy on the tech side, so you’ve been warned… A couple weeks ago I converted the Chef code to Visual Studio 2008 – not a new .net version, just upgraded the solution and project files to the new format so I could start using the new IDE. I ran [...]

Tidbits

With just over a day to go on the Poll to the right (The TV show ER: Should it stay or should it go?), it’s 8-3 in favor of getting rid of it! Too bad I don’t have any pull on the matter. This weekend I’m hoping to get version 1.3 of Chef posted on [...]
Visual Studio 2008
January 17th, 2008 · Comments Off · General
Earlier this week I received a free copy of Microsoft’s Visual Studio 2008 by being an Action Pack subscriber and completing a short little web tutorial and quiz. I installed it last night and decided to get the Chef code/projects converted so I could start using it. The usual project conversion wizard popped up as [...]
