Cooking for engineers

I found a website this weekend called "Cooking for Engineers." It presents recipes in a way that is absolutely wonderful--so succinct and logical. The recipe format takes away the the need for including paragraphs of instructions after the ingredients list. Tonight I made ratatouille using this recipe card. Check it out.

I was very curious to see what an engineer recipe card would look like. I'm pretty Type A so I thought I might appreciate the succinctness of it all. Cut to me opening link...followed by me laughing out loud and telling Troy to look at it. His response, I think Brian would think it was funny too.
What I think is really funny-- After looking at the card, the only thing I can recall as an ingredient is olive oil...but there were a lot of green lines on the page.
That's why you're making the big bucks and I'm stuck with 7th graders!

Kara, the meal was great.

Mia, I am afraid that it could be classified as a type of matrix. Please don't hold that against me. Those 7th graders need you!
