This sounds like a great hack! Personally we faced a kind of cold start problem with such a diary. So what we’re trying now with Kitchenful is to recommend new recipes that are similar to a few favorite dishes of our users, which we ask about in the onboarding process.

We like the idea of a “Future” list and are already thinking about a bookmarking / recipe import feature. How do you save future ideas in your app? (urls?)

It's a database-backed app, so it's just a marker in the database.

I understand the cold-start thing about the "diary" feature, but I think it'd be nice to have a list you could look back on of everything you've made, with notes on how you liked it, what you'd change, etc. That's been a big win for me.
