Keeping Recipes Organized

RE: Keeping Recipes Organized Post by micksgirl (101) | (08/25/2006) Profile | Contact Way to go Allison, I totally agree. I probably just made someone made a few minutes ago but I think if someone asks a question, answer it, dont break down what they said and give them advice they didnt ask for. Ok shutting up now, except to say I clicked on here to give a big HURRAH to Robin, I always know I will see her name on the recipe postings somewhere and I have downloaded a many of them. So Thanks ROBIN and thanks everyone who gives there time to make this a wonderful newsletter. RE: Keeping Recipes Organized Post by Allison (59) | (08/22/2006) Profile | Contact Of course hundreds of recipes will fit into a few photo albums. Amazon.com has several photo albums that hold 200-500 photos each. That's 200-500 recipe cards each. Just do the math. It works. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0 ... pd_bbs_1/002-9597803-8692058?ie=UTF8 And be nice. Don't poo-poo someone's idea before thinking about weather or not it actually works. And be appreciative. If someone makes a lot of contributions, they deserve more recognition than someone who contributes one or two recipes a year. I've seen a lot of insensitive comments on thriftyfun.com lately. If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all. And aren't moderators supposed to check stuff before it's posted? RE: Keeping Recipes Organized Post By Holly (Guest Post) (08/22/2006) Robin, If you have hundreds of recipes they aren't going to fit in "a few photo albums"! RE: Keeping Recipes Organized Post By (Guest Post) (08/22/2006) ROBIN POSTS A LOT OF RECIPES BUT SO DO SEVERAL OTHER MEMBERS. I WOULD LIKE TO THANK "EVERYONE"WHO DOES RE: Keeping Recipes Organized Post by Dianne M. (2) | (08/22/2006) Contact Thank you Robin, I have saved many, many of your recipes.I am a total Fan.I am now looking for them to see what's new. I have a computer program called "TreePad" that does a fine job of keeping them organized,and I still have acess to it offline. I wonder if you will publish your own cookbook?Could you tell us a little about yourself,and a picture maybe? Dianne, Upstate NY RE: Keeping Recipes Organized Post By pam2cats. (Guest Post) (08/21/2006) I used to love to collect recipes. I put them in my breadbox until it was stuffed. So I never tried any of them, too much of a mess. After a while I realized that I really don't like to cook. So I "organized" my recipes by dumping the whole stash of them into the trash.(I was moving so had to do something) I found I don't miss them at all. If I really need a recipe for something I can just look it up on someplace like this. And they're already "tried and true". Thanks, Pam RE: Keeping Recipes Organized Post by meoowmom (933) | (08/21/2006) Contact Robin, I am so glad you share so many wonderful and tasty recipes with us. Your tips are great too. Thank you. Annie RE: Keeping Recipes Organized Post by Debbie52 (656) | (08/21/2006) Profile | Contact Thanks for the idea, Robin! I enjoy cooking and I like to try new recipes. For the ones I print off the internet, I print on both sides of a sheet of paper and slip into a clear page protector. I then put in a binder. I have made up quite a few of these binders according to category so in other words, I've made my own cookbooks. If I try a recipe and we like it, it stays and I write notations right on the sheet but if we don't really love it, then I pitch. I love to cook for my family....I also love to eat and my body shows it :-( RE: Keeping Recipes Organized Post by nana6x (41) | (08/21/2006) Profile | Contact Robin is a great cook. I have printed so many of her recipes that i could fill several whole photo albumns. Thanks Robin!!
