For the last week I’ve been working on getting Macheesmo on a respectable hosting account. After much searching and review reading and twittering, I decided to go with Liquid Web. So far I’ve been very impressed with them. I think I’m developing a little bit of a crush. I mean it’s only be a few days and we’ve only been on like two dates, but when I login to my new control panel it just feels… right.
They are about 3 times as expensive as the shared hosting account I was using, but so far this appears to be a case of you get what you pay for and possibly more.
It’s like a great weight has been lifted off the shoulders of my website :)
Now for some links!
Beef Made Easy – This is amazing. Some of this I knew, most of it I didn’t, but either way it is a cool reference. I want this on the back of my 8.5 X 11 business card. (@ Incredimazing)
15 Meals for $15 – After my post on the cost of cooking, a reader emailed me a cool experiment that he is doing. Basically, he is trying to go a whole week (5 days or 15 meals) on $1/meal. They are almost done with the experiment and it’s a pretty interesting read. Check it out! (@ Can I get a Sample)
10 Tips to Improve your Cooking Instantly – This is a really great list sent to me from Traci. I think I agree with pretty much all of these! I need to do number 4 and I think number 6 is maybe the easiest thing you can start doing right away to improve your cooking. (@ Chef Gui)
Brown Butter Ice Cream – Ok. So I really love ice cream and brown butter but the title of this post is a bit deceptive. If you title something “How to make ice cream in a blender” I expect to only have to use a blender to make the ice cream. Paragraph 9 line 4 of this post though (for you lawyers out there) broke my heart when I learned that I still need an ice cream churn to make this! OH well. Still looks delicious. (@ Chez Pim)
Have a great weekend everyone. Oh and by the way, I really enjoy it when readers send me interesting links throughout the week so if you stroll across something that you think would fit in my weekly Around the Internet Kitchen
Wow! People are really loving tofu…
Note to self: Do not write posts like this because it will cause the Internet Gods to crash your site for MANY hours.
I have to say we saw this here and were a bit sad for you. Couldn’t have been a worse day hardware wise for the machine. Everything is back to smooth sailing now though in the meantime!
