As a fellow newbie, I scratched that itch and wrote a recipe for the
cookbook, with help from several folks at the Pylons Project Mini-
Conference a few months ago.
http://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid_cookbook/dev/mac_install.html

I think it was Ben Bangert who made a point at the mini-conf that
there is a big need to help newbies get up and running and doing stuff
with Pyramid with narrative style documentation. So I took it as a
challenge to learn, then pass along my experience with a recipe. The
resulting interaction and feedback helped me learn even more.

To create a new recipe, it's pretty easy. Get the docs from the repo,
write a new recipe with Sphinx, then make a pull request for review.
If you feel so inclined to do so, too, and find you need help, you can
hit up folks in IRC in #pyramid or #pylons pretty much 24/7.

Maybe I'll write a recipe on how to write a recipe.
