I have to say that I prefer "Friend" as a term.
I'd like to cast my vote for the endorsement camp. In his
counter-argument John managed to point out almost all the points I'd
make for this, but I'd like to add two more:
I agree to some extent.
But I find "endorsing" a recipe is implying a strong personal
commitment. "To endorse" carries meaning of legal endorsement.
I prefer just to "recommend" a recipe. I prefer "recommend" over
"endorse".
I like "recommend" -- that would work for me.
Wikipedia says:
1. to support, to back, to give one's approval to, especially
officially or by signature
2. To write one's signature on the back of a cheque when
transferring it to a third party, or cashing it
3. To give or receive an endorsement
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/endorse
I think meaning #1 fits with what we like. It's like New York Times
endorsing one of the presidential candidates.
