Remote and local recipes should be handled in different ways #35

It gives a poor user experience when remote recipes look exactly the same as local recipes. The only visible difference I've found is that when the user tries to edit or delete remote recipes, nothing changes.

It would be nice if it was obvious which recipes were remote and which were local. Maybe label them with a globe or something to distinguish them in at least some way.

It would also be nice if users weren't given the false idea that they can edit or delete the remote recipes. For this to happen a new view may need to be made like the edit recipe view, but one that can't be edited. Alternatively it may work to simply use the edit recipe view and alert the user that the recipe can't be edited when it is a remote one and they try to edit it.
