Gretchen,
Here is an idea for organizing your recipes online. Create a Microsoft Word document for each category, and you can either copy and paste text from online into the document, add a hyperlink to an online recipe, and you can add an image to the document of any recipe that you scanned.

Use the Heading features in Word to title each recipe in the document, and then create a Table of Contents at the top for reference.

I too struggle with this! I have 1 12×15 album I used for our very favorite recipes or ones to try and 2 big accordian files for more (20 years of cooking)! They are all filled. My goal is to go through them all and cook them. If they aren’t a “10″ or above they get tossed. I like the idea someone else had about organizing them electronically. Does anyone have tips on scanning in recipes instead of typing?

I love this idea. I had thought of something similar, but wasn’t sure how to implement it. I love the idea of temporarily labeling your categories. That has always been my issue, I never know what categories to use!

Thanks for sharing!

Cute! That looks like a very nice way to keep recipes organized. I’ll have to remember that!
