:Dear Julie, Thanks so much for your GREAT idea for organizing my recipes. I will let you
know how it goes. I have given two of my good friends your web address - I just love all
your ideas and help. Keep up the good work!! We really appreciate you!! Donna :)
Aloha Donna,
:
: GOOD FOR YOU!!! Glad to hear the "desk recipe" motivated you to feel free to toss what was no longer necessary :)
: As far as your "recipe collection" is concerned....first off the "healthy eating" ideas can be a "positive" motivating factor -- so I agree KEEP them!
: Yet, in order to switch over your habits it would be worthwhile to have them all in an organized fashion :)
:
: My suggestion would be to invest in a binder & some plastic sleeves. Categorize the recipes based on entrees, vegies, snacks, desserts etc...
: Use color paper & "tape or staple" the recipes directly onto the color paper (front & back) -- then place the paper in a plastic sleeve. Place the sleeve in the binder. Get yourself some of the "Avery Tabs" & create the individual sections for the "types" of food/meals for the binder. Go a step furthe & create an *index* in the front of the binder -- maybe a "color coded index" so you know Green is for vegies; yellow = snack; blue = entrees etc....
: Now you have an easy to access means to "eat healthy" PLUS when you take the binder out to prepare the recipes -- each one can withstand the prep time in the kitchen due to being protected in the plastic sleeve!
: Hope this helps!
: Much Aloha,
