I used to write favorite recipes down in a notebook. Then I printed them out and put them into a big file folder, the kind with sections so I could categorize them. Now I try to copy them into files on the computer. I use all three! And feel a bit disorganized. I did write most of my tried and true ones into a cookbook for my brother, which I add to occasionally. I take the laptop into the kitchen when I use them. I look forward to learning what others do!
