Visitors:

Hi!  I'm Karen.  Welcome to the site that's dedicated to small-size cooking; where everything here is for people who want no more than one or two servings.

I'm making this up as I go along, but here's what I've got on the site so far:

• Recipes from the Professionals - a brief description, main ingredients, any rating provided with the recipe and a link to that recipe on another website.  These are recipes created by someone else (chefs), and I'd be violating copyright laws if I had the recipe here.
• Recipes from the Rest of Us - a brief description, unusual or main ingredients, a rating (eventually) and a link to the recipe here on this website.  These are recipes provided by me or you to be shared here.
• Cookbooks - title, author, year published, any ratings, and one or more links to a place to purchase it.
• Equipment - cookware, gadgets, appliances - all those things we need that the rest of the world can find in any department store.  A description, maybe a picture, any ratings I can find, and links to one or more suppliers (if I can find suppliers - I'm still looking for a 6-inch glass pie plate.)
• Tips - brilliant brainstorms that solve some of our "down-sizing" problems.
• Conversion Tables - when your recipe says "2/3 cup" and "serves six".

Remember, this site is always being constructed so please bear with me.  I'll probably be adding more pages, and I know I want to add the ability to search the recipes by different criteria.  I also plan on adding in the ability for you to rate a tart pan, or add a tip, or comment on a recipe - but that's going to be a while yet.

We're all in this together, and the more information we can share the easier and more fun cooking is going to be for us.  E-mail me (karen@solocooking.com) if you've got any suggestions or find any problems, and especially if you have information to add and share.

Thanks.  I hope to hear from you soon.
