One of my granddaughters asked me for a recipe and that started me making a 5 x 7 looseleaf book with the recipes I make most often and also including many family favorites. I've named some of them, example: Ex-Aunt Flora's Corn Casserole, the nicest thing she ever did for our family. I bought some plastic sleeves for the recipes and grouped them by dinner, desserts, etc. I have so many recipes that I had to buy another looseleaf book. May in Jersey
