Show HN: I made a store to send the "Idea of a Pear" to friends and family
- jarnix 7y agoWhat is the background idea behind this? I'm maybe out of the loop.
- cookingoils 7y agoThanks for asking. I made this after making the tweet: https://twitter.com/elliottsphone/status/1205912688779501571?s=20 https://twitter.com/elliottsphone/status/1205912688779501571... recently. I thought it would be interesting to make it a reality and learn how to use the stripe / sendgrid api.
- gitgud 7y agoVery strange, it uses stripe payments too, what happens when I pay for the Pears? haha
- cookingoils 7y agoNot sure if this answers your question but you can send pears to other using their email. Recipients will receive your purchased “idea of a pear” as an emoji.
- perl4ever 7y agoI got some pears for Christmas, now what I need is an idea of a pear recipe.
- cookingoils 7y agoOh good idea. Let me know if you come across any good recipes. All I know is sliced pears.
- perl4ever 7y agohttps://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/apple-and-pear-crisp-recipe-2012748 https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/apple-and-pea... I was out of apples, and only had 3 pears, so I weighed them, divided by 4 lbs, and scaled the rest of the recipe by that ratio. It turned out pretty well. I highly recommend using a digital scale with tare to weigh ingredients. It makes things so much easier and more accurate. I wasn't really previously aware, but apparently a "crisp" has oatmeal and a "crumble" doesn't. This may be Americanese. In any case, it's much easier and faster than a pie and just as good with ice cream.
