Saving Mom’s Recipes with Klaser

My mom is an amazing cook. She’s taught me a lot in the kitchen over the years, but I really just don’t have her touch. She keeps her recipes on index cards in a box in the kitchen, but she hardly ever gives them more than a glance. If I’m going to make a meal taste as good as one of hers, I’m going to need a recipe.

The thing is, I’m terribly disorganized. If something’s out of sight, it’s immediately out of mind. I’ve wanted to recreate my mom’s triple-layer chocolate cake for years, but I always forget to get the recipe from her when I’m visiting. I’ve asked her to email it to me before, but if we have anything in common, it’s our ability to forget a task the moment we turn away from it.

I got the Klaser app to help organize my work schedule, but when I downloaded it, I had no idea how useful it would be in so many other capacities. I was visiting my parents last week, and when my mom pulled out her recipe box, it hit me. I could just snap a picture of her cake recipe – and any other recipes I might want – and save them for later.

Now, ordinarily, I might just take a picture and forget about it, but, using Klaser, I was able to file my mom’s cake under my “Recipes” folder and tag them #mom and #cake. Now I have my mom’s recipes right on hand any time I want to use them!

Plan Your Outfit on the Go

I look forward to the holidays every year, and every year I seem to forget just how stressful they can be. Balancing work, alone, takes up enough of my energy, but then I have to keep the dates, times, and places straight for all of the events and holiday parties that my friends and family are throwing. I don’t want to miss any of the fun, but this is a really busy time of year for my job.

Last Friday night, I had to work late, and I had a party to go to. I didn’t leave the office until 7:45 PM, and the party started at 9:00. I had promised my friend who was hosting that I’d be there on time to help her greet guests, and she’d promised that there were going to be some seriously attractive and eligible bachelors. I needed to get there in a hurry, and I needed to look stunning.

With my office fifteen minutes from home and home thirty minutes from the party, I knew I’d only have a half-hour to get ready. Klaser to the rescue! Since I downloaded the app, I’ve snapped a picture and catalogued every new addition to my wardrobe. I usually use this to keep track of what’s clean and what needs to be dry-cleaned, but Friday night I used it as a personal assistant.

On the train ride home, I pulled my phone out and scrolled through my “Clothes” file for everything I’d tagged as #party and #sexy. Before I got to my stop, I already knew exactly what dress I was wearing and which shoes and purse to match.
