Welcome to Paul's Kitchen! Many people have been following my food postings on Facebook, and asking for recipes, so I am finally opening a forum to accommodate the many requests.

My feeling about food is that it is an indicator of how well we live. It is my belief that one does not have to be a "gourmet" to eat well, nor does good quality food have to be expensive.

This blog is about cooking, food, dining, dining out, beverages, and sometimes a little humor.

Enjoy, and thank you for visiting!!

Kitchen Dial; One of My Favorite iPhone Apps



I spend a lot of time reading recipes online, and often, when I am visiting European websites, recipes are in metric units, in need of US conversion. Let's face it, two facts make metric recipes difficult for me; school was a long time ago, and metric units never took hold in the US.

While browsing the iTunes App Store, I found this handy, and free conversion app called Kitchen Dial.  It has simple dial controls, and works wonderfully. I use this app all the time, and thought it may be useful to my readers.

With a little practice, I figured out how this app can even be used to scale recipes, if you with to make larger (or smaller) quantities of a dish.
