Review MasterCook: Two Fat Ladies / Sierra 3348542070233:There are only 200 recipes on MasterCook Two Fat Ladies, but what recipes they are. Anyone familiar with the antics of the Two Fat Ladies on TV or with their printed cookbooks (including Two Fat Ladies and Two Fat Ladies: Full Throttle may recognise some of the fare. For those not familiar with the TV series, it is safe to say that the recipes have a tendency towards the rich side, suitable for those of large appetites, and not really ideal for vegetarians. While there are some veggie dishes included, the dinner time cry is more likely to be "pheasant and pickled walnut terrine, anyone?", than "gratin of beetroot tonight, dear?"There are some nice features here that can't be found in a cookbook: quantities can be automatically adjusted to suit the number of people you want to feed; the software can suggest alternatives if a recipe involves ingredients you don't have or don't like; and you can assess the nutritional information about each recipe at an almost frightening level of detail. You can also add your own recipes to the database and create shopping lists automatically. Despite the death of one of the Ladies, their reputation as cooks endures, and with this CD-ROM you can have a go at recreating some of their great meals-and watch your nutritional intake as well. -Sandra Vogel.

Review Encyclopaedia Botanica Plus with Monty Don / Sierra:A lot of gardening CD-ROMs include plant databases and typically they contain anywhere between 1000 and 3000 plants. They offer their databases as one of a range of features that more often than not include garden planning. Encyclopedia Botanica Plus is different on both counts. Its main content is its plant database, and this stretches to an impressive 10,000 entries. The database is entirely searchable: the idea is that you can either use it as a ready reference tool for information about a particular plant, or look for groups of plants that meet specific needs in your own garden. You can narrow the plant database down by criteria such as flower colour, flowering season, sun/shade preferences, growing height and spread, plant preferred soil and plant hardiness. You can add your own notes to plants in the database and can save selected groups or individually picked plants as lists for later referral. If plants you particularly like are not in the database, you can add them, along with digital photos. The main extra feature is a day-by-day garden journal which is on hand to help you manage gardening jobs. It is easily printed for use away from the computer. [+]
Encyclopedia Botanica Plus scores highly where usability is concerned, and has plenty of content. It would be a good addition to any gardener's software collection. -Sandra Vogel.
