epic project :)

Somewhere along the line I noticed that I have collected up about a million (conservative estimate) handwritten/magazine clipped/mail order/etc. recipes that hang out with my cookbooks.

Their main function in life seems to be "look messy and be really hard to sort out". They have been sitting on the counter in a pile with my cookbooks, looking like crap and basically hindering everything.

Well, well, well. What is a girl to do?

I don't remember if it was my idea or Alex's, but the idea came from somewhere that these loose recipes need to be captured and put in a binder between those neat-o plastic sheets (which I love because I spill egg on EVERYTHING when I cook).

Well, I'm doing it and I'm actually almost done. AND everything is getting sorted by category, so my seventy five bread recipes, for instance, are all actually hanging out together!

This project has been a long time coming, and I'm so glad to finally be doing it!

Smart! I had to break down and do this too. The plastic things are a great idea!!! I'll have to do that, my sheets are covered in food...... :(
