Zune 2.x

You may recall that I had written up the Zune Wish List a couple of months after I received mine in December of 2006. I took the time to assess my needs and what the Zune hardware and software could do to meet those needs. It has now been nearly a year since that list… Continue reading Zune 2.x

Weight Watcher’s Recipes (circa 1974)

Candy Boots has done some brilliant work resurrecting old recipe cards from the genius of Weight Watchers. My wife and friend, Amanda, had the idea to put together some product shots of the recipes highlighted on Candy Boots’ site. If we’re among the first 20 to do so, we’ll get a free copy of her… Continue reading Weight Watcher’s Recipes (circa 1974)
