Recipe Book

I figured that if I actually found recipe that turned out pretty good and I didn't want to lose them in the 'junk' drawer in the kitchen (please tell me I am not alone in having one of these drawers that everything appears to end up in) that a recipe book might be a good idea!!

So my trusty BIA to the rescue I have made this version, which is great as it has pockets for pages so I can just stuff a card with recipe inside the pockets and not lose them!

I fell in love with this DCWV stack called 'Sweet' - perfect for the theme! :)
Little pull out tabs that I can jot recipes down on or stick cut outs from magazines onto.

    That is gorgeous, I made a recipe book last year just for this purpose and have yet to put a recipe in it, the book is in my office not even in the kitchen.
    Dont worry I would be suprised if anyone doesnt have a junk drawer or cupboard or two otr three come to that

    A junk drawer? Me? Never? Everything is filed alphabetically and then numerically and then colour coded in my house ... NOT!!!! :0)

    I have a junk house ... not just a drawer :0))

    I love this recipe book and you are right about those papers ... Yummy to go with your yummy recipes!

    That looks to good to use! Mine all go into a plastic display folder - splash proof, or is that Vicki proof? LOL.

    I thought a junk drawer was a requirement of all kitchens LOL (although I too have a junk house).

    Super book Annette, you'll have to show us the pages/inserts later when you have actually put some recipes in there.

    Toni :o)

Thank you for taking the time to leave your comment, it is truly appreciated - sort of confirms that it is more than my Mum and husband that read this thing! :)
