Right, that's it.

You do realize that "keeping recipes" is the first excuse that people 
invented as a use for home computers. From the start, people asked "what 
can you do with it?" and automating recipes was one of first answers. 
This was in 1975 or so, with the MITS/Altair machines. Things like 
spreadsheets, tax programs, etc. had not been dreamed of yet.

I have some large number of computers in my house, 15 at one count a 
while ago, my wife has three she uses all the time, not counting the 
Slimserver for our SqueezeBoxen and Transporter. I write software for a 
living, my wife did for 20+ years.

We do not keep recipes on a computer. 3x5 cards work great.
