If you are going to chase achievements, especially on multiple toons, then a nice little addon is over achiever. It can be downloaded at curse ( http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/overachiever.aspx ) or wowmatrix. It allows you to search and track achievements as well. These are the features I use most, and I am sure it does more. It comes in handy when a group of us start comparing what we need for the next one to tackle. It can also make suggestions on which achievements to work on. It keeps tracks of such things as : "To All The Squirrels I've Loved Before", "To All The Squirrels Who Shared My Life": Do I need to /love this critter? "Pest Control": Have I exterminated this critter? "Well Read", "Higher Learning": Have I read this book? "The Scavenger," "Outland Angler," "Northrend Angler": Have I fished this type of node? "It's Happy Hour Somewhere", "Tastes Like Chicken": Have I consumed this food or drink? Holiday Achievements: "Let It Snow": Do I need to use a Handful of Snowflakes on this player? "Fistful of Love": Do I need to use a Handful of Rose Petals on this player? "Shake Your Bunny-Maker": Do I need to use Spring Flowers on this player?

Good tip! I can’t afford it now but if it comes down to it i may have to suck it up and buy Savory Deviate Delight recipe.

Dangit! Why do I always learn about the easy way after I do it the hard way?? lol… well it seems like it anyways…
I just got the Sous Chef achiev by manually going through all my 159 recipes and finally narrowing it down to the 5 I didn’t have and got one of them (Rum Tum Tubers, yum!). So now the only ones I don’t have are the epic recipe from the AQ gate opening quest chain (eekk! I’m only on “One May Rise”), the Rogue tea (I’m a hunter…), a one time horde only quest recipe (still might get this one even though I’m Alli), and the stupid Deviate fish recipe that I never could get to drop for me… maybe the AH will drop it soon…
Anyways… yea the Dinner Impossible achiev only took me about 15 min all together… in, out, done.

i use this as well. Spot on.

Also, for alliance out there struggling to get the 160, and looking at buying the recipe for Savory Deviate Delight…think for a moment. Check the neutral AH for it, its generally a few thousand gold cheaper than the alliance one. Horde characters do a lot of questing in the barrens, we alliance do not, therefore it is not as much of a high priced commodity for them.

If you were like me and didn’t have cooking when winter’s veil came around, and you can’t get one of the recipe’s, this one is going to be a must. And its obscene to even think about getting Dirge’s Chimerok Chops. AND Deviate Delight is actually a good seller most of the time, many gnomes love to get out of their skin and become something worth looking at.

Best of luck!

Dangit Jurandr! You’ve gone and stolen my thunder bro. How dare you steal my lead-in?

But Jurandr is right, there is a natural progression here, and I am working on an intro to the mod he describes above. I probably would have waited til next week for a better article to put it behind, but now that the cat is out of the bag I suppose there’s nothing for it any more. Here it comes . . .

For anybody eying the other cooking achievements, I highly reccomend the addon Ackis Recipe List. I would never have found all 160 for Sous Chef otherwise.
