In the long run, this abundance of sources results in loose recipe clippings that threaten to fall out of your cookbook, often exceeding the book's thickness. If you make room for a laptop in the kitchen, the new Gnome Recipes program can save you not only from this avalanche of recipe clippings but a huge amount of time, from writing shopping lists to setting the timer to converting portions [1].
