Parsing issues with thekitchn.com #13

Doesn't return ingredient list, we'll work on a parser for this soon.

The markup for thekitchn is very temperamental. It's probably not one of the parsers that would be straightforward to fix, either. I'm happy to have you look at it. You'll need to add a few extra test cases (i.e. HTML pages to parse against) as the test cases I have at the moment all seem to be passing with current markup.

Thekitchn is amongst the top sites that fail to clip accurately, and I think this is because their markup is so non-standard—and it may vary from page to page, as well. I'm anxious to improve this, and might invest time it myself if you don't. But just know up-front that this probably isn't one of the easier fixes out there.
