Hey!<br>
<div><br><br>
</div> member = models.ForeignKey(User, related_name="added_recipes",<br>
blank=True, null=True)<br>

When I view the form in the admin interface, it works, but that field<br>
shows up as a select box of all users in the system.<br>

magic ideally) that it should get the user from the 'request.user'<br>
currently using the app?<br>
