Guest guest Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 I used to use 3-ring binders, but I'm moving away from that. I now use MasterCook software. It only cost $13 and change. I really like it. I'm trying to get all my recipes into it. It's really nice when you plan and need a grocery list. It also gives you the nutritional information on recipes as well. The site I purchased it from is: https://fe.trymedia.com/magnus/bbyt.html?contentid=e981bc78a3d4f1cc6ab28b4d6f0e8\ 199 & offering=30m_d & mv_pc=t_12so , TendrMoon wrote: > > In a message dated 12/29/06 5:05:44 PM Eastern Standard Time, > elmothree2000 writes: > > > Any genious ideas for paper/recipe control? > > Beth > > I have two three ring binders with clear plastic inserts and everything I > print out goes into one of them.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 and then when you want to take the recipe from the computer to the kitchen...? Or should I just move a computer into the kitchen? (An idea I've been tossing around for awhile now.) " Tina M. Hood " <surmisez wrote: I used to use 3-ring binders, but I'm moving away from that.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 Beth, If I see a recipe I am particularly interested in, I copy it and email it to myself. I have a recipe folder in email and sort it by things like Asian, Mexican, cookies, cakes, etc. GB -- In , Beth Renzetti <elmothree2000 wrote: > > and then when you want to take the recipe from the computer to the kitchen...?

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 My office has always been in the kitchen (going on 16 years). I like the fact that the MasterCook will also cut recipes down and make them larger by what ever percentage you wish. , Beth Renzetti <elmothree2000 wrote: > > and then when you want to take the recipe from the computer to the kitchen...?

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 I sometimes copy the recipe contents from the email and paste it into a word or works document. That way I can edit the recipe or add my own notes. I save the document in a Recipes folder in My Documents. Since they are sorted alphabetically, the recipe is easy to find if I name the file beginning with the main ingredient. Most of the time I print the recipe to a .pdf file and save it in the Recipe folder.
