Hi, I get the digest, just like you do.  I save recipes from this group often.

 

    What Audrey suggested in her post is good when you want to print.  You may

also like to save them as " Word " (or whatever word-processing program your

computer uses) document file.  I do that a lot--I have an enormous " cookbook "

section in my computer files (and most of them are backed up, although I've been

notified that my " backup " device is now getting too full for its own good!)

 

    To save to a file, I just click on the " Word " program from my startup menu

and put up a blank document form.  I highlight only the recipe from the digest

and then click " copy " .  I then pull up the Word blank page and hit

" paste " --bingo!  There it is on the document page!

 

    If I want to, I can change a few things on the document before filing it.  I

usually hit the " font " tab in Word and highlight the text for the title of the

recipe, then click to underline just that.  It usually automatically saves the

recipe document with the title of the recipe as the title of the document,

making it easy to find when I am looking for it later. 

 

   Whenever I want to USE one of my filed recipes, I just pull it up from my

documents and print a preview--just to see how it will come out, then I print it

up on paper and--voila!  No problem with finding a good recipe!

 

    I wish you success with your cooking adventures!

 How to print a recipe

I just joined this group and I honestly don't know how to print single recipes I

like without printing the whole digest.  I'm sure there's a way so please

someone enlighten me.

 

Thanks, Carol

I also save recipies from the group. Like you do, I save them to word in 'my

documnets'. I don't have a back up drive, so periodically I send a copy of the

document with all thousand or so recipies to myself at my address.

mail boxes are unlimited in size, so I use that as a back up. When I go

somewhere, I can still access my recpies and every couple months, when I have

added a bunch of new ones, I delete the told email I sent to myself and send a

new one.

 

I also print out the recipe to take to the kitchen with me while I cook. I save

the printed recipies with my comments and any changes I may have made or

suggestion on how to try it next time.

good cooking and happy eating,

Katie
