Turn the recipes you love into into step-by-step cooking sessions - with timers, scaling, & no distractions

Hello,

I'm James. I created this app mostly as a love letter to my mother Linda. She is the best chef, baker, and cookie maker of all time. She has been cooking heartfelt meals for me my entire life and now does the same for my kids. Her chocolate chip cookies are legendary, a local phenomenon for decades running. The gift of a lifetime of good food is one I'll never truly be able to repay. This app is not an attempt to repay an impossible debt but rather a way to empower her to make even more wonderful food without a few of the frustrations of modern cooking.

Many of her recipes are handed down on yellowing recipe cards from my grandmother. Other more recent recipes are on handwritten or printed pieces of paper from various sources. Some of her favorites are in the many cookbooks she owns and many more are on food blogs she frequents. I wanted a way for her to create her own collection of recipes from any source with as little friction as possible, and then to be able to cook the recipes in that collection with no ads and a simple screen lock feature. That’s the basis for the app.

Other features have come along while building that seemed to make sense or sounded cool. I have other important chefs in my life including my sister and brother-in-law, who have both cooked professionally, who helped offer feedback and suggestions. My wonderful wife Emily created the design and styling and has constant feedback about how to streamline both form and function. It's a work in progress. Please enjoy the app and if you have any issues, feedback or ideas about how to make it better, I’d love to hear them.

Thanks for your support.

Sincerely,

James

P.S. Love you Mom
