I just added a new recipe:

http://cookbooks.opengrads.org/index.php?title=Recipe-008:_Using_PyGrADS_to_draw_contours_on_top_of_a_true-color_image_of_the_earth_(Blue_Marble)

If there are PyGrADS users out there that would like to turn the PyGrADS
example scripts into recipes your help would be greatly appreciated.

  Cheers!
