O.K. being the great husband I am I am helping Teri clean up or organize her recipes and need some ideas.

I don't like the little cards because there hard to read so what is a good way to make a recipe box, holder, etc that would be bigger then a 3X5 or 4X6 card.
Someone suggested using just a note book with laminated pages.

Something else if anyone has a good recipe they would like to share post it here for everyone to enjoy.
I know Heath has a killer "BIKER STEW" that he has shared before.

I know some of the newer generation females don't cook like mom used to, but they might surprise us with a good home cooked recipe..................
:D yes the flame suit is on!!!

I found some Cool Photo Albums that I used before. The Index cards fit perfect. I got different colors for different meals. Cajun, Italian, Mexican... But I guess you could be your very own "Perry Crocker".

All my Cook books are in storage while I'm here. I do miss them. Learning to cook some different stuff here. More with Indian Curry.
Got to love the Spice! Got to respect the Spice!

The thing I liked about the Albums there cheap, there everywhere, and there are a billion different styles. I know that you can even get a program to print on the cards.

If you need a bigger size try school note books. You can just print out your pages from the Computer.

2 words Palm Pilot

no kidding my sister and Bro-in-law (love em but they're geeks) had this old computer for their pantry to do stuff like recipes and grocery lists and stuff on. I don't think they did it, but for $100 you could have a little palm pilot that would hold recipes that could be organized in categories, sub categories, cross referenced. Ok I'm a geek.

That would be a GREAT IDEA for me, but Teri is the one that will use it and she isn't the best at the electronic gadgets.
