Weezl and friends Phase 2 -giving it a whirl for Shirl! Testing meal plan for a month

Allegra

This is what I'm aware of atm:

Weezl - to shout up whenever a recipe is finalised so Hornetgirl can proofread

Hornetgirl - on standby for proofreading

Poohbear - checking if any current CFR pages will need changing once there are two planners up (not sure if this has been done yet) ; tomato scones method (I believe this may have been done)

Hayley writing another alternatives article, everyone to keep suggesting things

Potty - checking timings for vegan recipes (PMd her the link this morning), testing vegan mayo and raisin biscuits

All vegan recipes to be renamed - I think this has been done on Skype yesterday ? Please confirm if it still needs doing


A task that involves checking some information against a spreadheet - not sure what this is or if someone is looking at it

Everyone to say what they think about renaming "cooking advice" and turning it into "getting started" !!!!

Allegra

Oh, and Weezl - are all references to "Planner 3" going to be renamed as "Planner 2" ? Else you'll have a lot of confuzzled people asking where the heck Planner 2 has got to....

Shanks' dog is bravely doing this. Shanks looked at the sheet and conked out, so the dog took over. His typing is quite neat considering.

allegra I also asked mr arty to do calcium/iron and salt per recipe for shirl's planner, ready for those nutrition boxes we spoke about having on every recipe page. He has manfully done Ca anf Fe and now doing NaCl.

So that would mean we now have cals, fat, clacium, Iron, and salt per portion.

Can anyone remember if there was any other nutrition data people wanted to see on each recipe? Juliette and Taka both gave a view I remember... and potty I think...

From what I recall there are about two or three on the test site - and it's "option three" rather than "planner 3", sorry - it's on the planners page, it should just be options one and two really.

And well done that dog.

Aless I got a very posh stand mixer like that for my birthday. I know in some circles that is probably very sad, but I was hugely excited about it and have used it loads already, especially as I bought a book for 50c from the thrift store on make ahead mixes ( for brownies and muffins and the like) so we have been making and testing lots of those. Of course the kids are delighted.

I am unable to sleep waiting for the biggest transaction of my life to go through, hence the normal time posting. Hopefully more news later.

Oh and getting started gets my vote, I might skip something called cooking advice, but I'd look at getting started.

ooooh! Does it do big batches of bread dough with a dough hook? Can it handle a 1.5lb-2lb of flour dough batch?

*me likey, me wanty*

Can't remember anything specific from Potty, but know that vitamins, fibre and energy were mentioned by various people at various stages.

"getting started" !!!!

Thanks for the link Allegra
I am a bit busy over the next week, but I will have a quick look from time to time, and update when I can.
I may try the raisin biscuits on Sunday, and take them into work
But both of those depend on how quick I can label the wine bottles for the wedding, as that needs to be done first (I have put the back label on all the bottles so far...just the front label and the ribbon to go on now... just incase anyone is interested )

I think "Getting started" is happier way of saying "cooking advice"
It seems more optomistic to me.
"Getting started" gets my vote

I did mention some stuff about cals, ect....
But it was what you have already included
