How do you keep up with all these wonderful recipes - so many of them sound great. Yet I'm never seem to have them handy when I'm ready to try something new and printing page after page doesn't seem like a great idea.

What is your secret?

Honestly, printing them out. I have a folder labeled "LAWL recipes". Also, buying the cookbook, it's a little expensive but well worth it.

I second Nikki's post. I do the same thing. I do make notes either in my calendar at work or in my diary on the pages in the upcoming weeks if I really have something specific in mind so that I don't forget it.

I do the same things.... I also plan out my meals for the week and I pick what recipes I want to try.

You can also copy and paste them into a word document and then when ready, either do a search on an ingredient or a word... Maybe one file for each thread of recipes...
Just a thought, I do this on many of them and then print them when I'm ready to use them.

I have a word document that has been formatted for a cookbook. I copy and paste the new recipes into the cookbook and update the table of contents. I periodically print out the table of contents and keep that handy when I am planning my meals and then when I decide what recipes I want, I print them out for the week and put them by the fridge. I work with a lady that is doing LAWL too and at the end of the week when I am done with the recipes, I note how I liked the recipe and any tweaks I made and give her the papers.

If you want the cookbook template, PM me and I will email it too you.

Deb - Is this a case of "great minds think alike"? If so, you really should be worried and having nightmares!
I really need to go to bed, but I feel like I missed SO much today out here!
Hugs,
