1) Stay on topic. It must be food related, in some way. We like recipes, but articles, techniques, pictures of your new All-Clads...all of it is relevant and we'd love to see it.

2) If you are overtly copying a recipe out of a book, a magazine, or off a website, please provide a source. If you're not sure where the recipe came from, don't worry about it.

3) If you're looking for a recipe, try looking through the tags before posting a question.

4) Pictures are welcome, but please limit them to 400 pixels if they're going to be outside a cut and limit uncut pictures to 1 per post. Underneath a cut, you can post as many pics as you want and while a good guideline for width is somewhere around 600 pixels, I'm not going to hold you to it.

5) Please use a tag in recipe or article posts. If you need help with that or the tag doesn't exist, please let me know. You can also look at past posts to see the tagging behavior. Vegetarian, for the purposes of tagging, includes eggs, dairy, and fish.

6) Please post the recipe name in the title. If it is a chicken soup recipe, title the entry, "Chicken Soup."

7) Do not promote your website, comm, or blog with us. If you want to link back to the recipe page on your own site, that's fine, but you must post the recipe in full in your post, along with the link. Do not link just to a website, comm, or blog. We're not community promo and I will just delete the post; you'd only be wasting our time.
