Happy Anniversary to Me!

And although you never think it's possible to love your spouse more than you did when you first married, I can honestly say I do. He knows my hopes and dreams, picks me up when I fall, and encourages me to start again when I fail. He's a…

Recipes..... Am I missing it?
Is there a way to log ingredients for a recipe and the site will calculate everything together to give you the breakdown per serving?

I need to vent soooo badly, so I hope you all don't mind. I really want to do this, but no matter what I try, I fail. I make poor food choices, then feel guilty afterwards.
