Recipe fun

I host a little recipe archive. I've been redoing my website (aren't we always), and one of my first steps has been to gather some statistics. Recently I've been noticing similarities between my recipe site and Google (aside from scale, perhaps): I can figure out similar recipes, and maybe I could even help the people searching for one of: avacaod, avocade, avocardo, avocato, avogado, avacadp, avocodo, avacodo, avcado, avacado to actually find recipes about avocado.

there'll surely be a nice emergency social organised just for you... :-) Actually, there's already one organised for me (commuting from Lyon) on December 17.

We'll be eating oysters, in the hope of finding pearls...
