Perhaps you should better label your CD spines?

Personally, I'd like Amarok to maintain my recipe collection, with  
pictures of the item, ingredient lists and so on - then when I can't  
think of what to cook for dinner, I can simply load a smart playlist  
based on my favourite ingredients. I don't think this is too much of  
a stretch to handle, and would allow me to truly rediscover my pantry.
