What Is Plummelo?
Plummelo combines the ability to collect and share recipes from online and offline sites, and develop shopping lists all in one place. Essentially, Plummelo makes preparation for cooking and food shopping easier. Go to Plummelo.com.
Here’s just a small sampling of what you can do with Plummelo:
Collect all of your favorite recipes in one online recipe box
Search for your favorite recipes on different websites, then save them in your online recipe box at Plummelo. You can even save grandma’s secret recipe by manually entering it (and keeping it private). Imagine, no more paper clutter in your kitchen.
Never wonder where you put that recipe
Plummelo is web-based, so you can access your Plummelo recipe box from any computer or mobile device. It’s much easier to search through your recipes in your online recipe box than to flip through hundreds of recipe cards. Just log in, and they’re all there.
Plan out what you’re going to eat
Simply browse your recipe box or recipes that other Plummelo users have saved, then add the recipes to your shopping list. Spend less time planning, and more time enjoying cooking and eating!
Email or print shopping lists of your meal plans
Plummelo’s shopping list feature automatically creates a shopping list of all of the ingredients from the recipes you want to cook. Your grocery shopping list will be so much more efficient because you’ll only be buying what you need. You can email it to your smartphone (or your spouse’s!), or print it at home or work. We even group items by grocery store section so that you don’t have to ping-pong across your shopping list or, worse yet, the grocery store. What could be easier?

Contributing Bloggers
Kristen Hinman writes the column Swine Dining: A City Girl Cooks Country. She used to think the perfect weeknight dinner consisted of an omelette and a glass of wine. OK, she still does. Her husband, on the other hand? Not so much. Luckily, three years of recreational cooking school in Paris and a vast cookbook collection mean she’s never at a loss for ideas. Kristen is a journalist who has lingered in celebrity chefs’ kitchens, nosed over midwestern caviar houses and taken pigs to slaughter–all on the clock. She lives in St. Louis and Washington D.C. and is the winner of two James Beard Foundation Awards for newspaper writing. One day she will wallpaper her pantry with Gourmet magazine covers.

Robin Horrigan writes the column Cooking from the Carpool Lane. She lives on Boston’s south shore and is a stay at home Mom to Ryan, seven, and Maegan, three. Her fascination with cooking sprouted from watching Julia Child cook on a little black and white TV; Robin helped her Mom in the kitchen until she was old enough to ask Santa for her very own copy of The Joy of Cooking. She experiments with all kinds of cooking and baking, from quick weeknight dinners and easy cookies to long simmering weekend stews and complicated, fancy desserts. Ryan thinks if his Mom will ever be famous, it will be “for her awesome cookies.” Her friends say it will be for the cocktails. Either way, if she’s not doing volunteer work or shopping for shoes, you’ll probably find her in the kitchen. Robin’s favorite recipe.
