Okay, this is a VERY rough version of the NEW Cooking Stoned redesign that is in play (thank you, +Rory Loeb)...this is the recipe view. Notice the big #foodporn photo at the top along with all the ingredients moved up along with other cooking info.

I would love your thoughts on it!

Brazilian Building Turns Into Enormous 80s Arcade Game

Playing video games on your TV or iPad will never feel quite as rewarding again after you watch this video. A group of digital artists took over a building on one of Sao Paulo, Brazil’s busiest streets in April 2013 and turned it into the world’s largest interactive arcade.

In developing nations, the spread of mobile technology is far outpacing the spread of access to reliable grid electricity. This means that, of the some 200 million mobile phones in Africa alone, most can not be charged in the owners’ homes.

This kickstarter could change that! What do you think?

Within the Eastern philosophy way of eating, all foods have Yin (cold) or Yang (warm) qualities. For a balanced and healthy diet, you need a balance of both types of foods.

Raspberry & Lime Sangria Popsicles
http://cookingstoned.tv/recipe/raspberry-lime-sangria-popsicles/

I’ve been wanting to make a wine popsicle for quite some time. But I wanted one that really showcased the wine. I love using wine as an ingredient but not just to dump it into some sangria with no consideration to the tasting notes.

More screenshots of the iPad app. Basically, you have two options...eat or grow. And from there we have a selection of how-tos, videos, location based information to help you get the job done. This is about 1/8 of what the app will be so far.

Thoughts?

Gorgeous, isn't it? This photograph was taken by my friend J Henry Fair, and amazing environmental activist.

You might be surprised to find out that this is actually pollution. Yup. It's beautiful and disgusting at the same time.

I have this idea. I want to change our relationship to food.

I have an idea. I want to make it easier for those who already grow food to cook it, preserve it, sell it and share it. For those that want to start growing it, I want to make that easier too. For those that just want to cook and eat, I want to help get you fed.

I want to give everyone, those with smartphones and those without, access to this information.

I have this idea. I want to change our relationship to food. Am I crazy?

Make ice cubes with leftover wine

I know many of you are probably saying, "Who ever has leftover wine?" :-)  Anyhow, for those of us who do, here is a handy tip - freeze it!  Also, if you are like me and regularly cook with wine, this tip is extremely useful.

Tips For Freezing 
- Wines with low alcohol contents are the easiest to freeze.
- Do not freeze wine in the bottle; instead, use ice cube trays.   (Each cube is approx. 1 oz.)
- Once "frozen", transfer the cubes into Ziplock or resealable bags or containers and label them!
- Handle with care, remember wine cubes are a tad bit slushier than “regular” ice cubes.
