Any recommendations?

I want a computer program for recipes.

I want to be able to enter recipes into it & ideally have it calculate the nutritional value (this feature is optional).

I want to be able to plan a week's worth of menus, using recipes that are stored in the program, & have it create a shopping list.

Anyone know of any program like this?

Maybe this one...

On a Mac? I use MacGourmet and I think it does the things you want it to do. http://macgourmet.com/

As an aside, Big Miss is incenced that the clean up people in the Gulf are only using human hair to capture the oil. She did a science fair experiment w/ human hair, dog fur, and sheep wool to see what was better. Wool came in first, but dog fur was very close second and Big Miss thinks that they should be using the fur too. I told her I would let you, as the only person involved with FEMA we know, know this and see if you have any ideas on who to write to to let them know. Big Miss can't find an email addy for the EPA Thoth she is writing to FEMA now and just finished writing to the White House. :)

thanks!

Thanks. :). She was very worked up about it so I said I'd ask. It was just nice to see her worked up over something, the news kept saying hair.

software, and swimming questions

When I was in Japan I used this software: http://www.dietorganizer.com/ Not sure if it has quite the features you want, but check it out.

Totally unrelated, two stupid swimming questions: How do you keep your goggles from fogging up? I recently got some new ones, and they were fog-free as the box promised for my first swim, but I had problems today. Also, do you put on a swim cap with your hair wet or dry?

I'll check out that link.

The best way to keep your goggles from fogging up is to rub spit in them. Hock up some, rub it in the goggles, rinse them out & put them on.

I like to soak my hair with fresh water (i.e., in the shower) & then put on my cap. This helps prevent chlorine damage to your hair.
