+What is this!?
+==============
+
+Mat is a small recipe management, food planning & lunch box inventory system.
+It is likely of very low interest to others than me, given that it is merely
+hacked up to meet my personal needs. No attempts at all have been made at
+making it useful to anyone else but me. Yet, for the truely curious souls, the
+source code can be found at
+[http://git.netizen.se/mat/](http://git.netizen.se/mat/).
+
+How do I use it?
+----------------
+
+### Planning
+At the core of it all is a recipe database with ingredient lists, references to
+full cooking descriptions and a growing list of cooking comments. Of course
+more recipes make their way into the database over time and as the documented
+knowledge and experience increases, the data becomes more useful. Keeping this
+information at one place have made it easier for me to plan my meals, while at
+the same time raising the quality of them and making eating more interesting.
+Illustrated by an example, execution of a typical command looks like the
+screenshot below:
+
+![searchrecipes](searchrecipes.png)
+
+A meal preparation plan in its simplest possible meaningful form contains only
+one recipe. Illustrated by the picture below.
+
+![cooking queue](cooking_queue.png)
+
+### Shopping
+Generating shopping lists is a trivial, but quite useful, functionality to use
+after having planned what to cook. Occasionally I look at these lists in my
+phone while grocery shopping, but most times I print them to be able to easily
+make additions and conveniently tick items off it while at the store.
+

+
+### Cooking
+Lacking a futuristic humanoid kitchen robot, cooking is unfortunately mainly a
+manual process. I believe having access to recipe information with my comments
+from previous attempts at the dish, has at least prevented me from making a few
+errors.

+### Measuring
+"Messen ist Wissen."

+
+### Storing
+The prepared food is frozed in meal sized portions. Every lunch box is labeled
+with essential information in human readable form, as well as a machine
+readable code to make it possible to track it and to keep an inventory.
