A few years ago I found a website (free)that you could save your recipes on and also save recipes that you found on the web.

Do you know the link?

No i don't save online. I have a spiral notebook that I have all my most used recipes. It's in my kitchen closet with the dishes. This book is used every week. On hand real quick.

I find them online, but I save them to a folder on my desktop.

My favorite is Landolakes.com, great recipes and coupons and conversion chart. I also like Allrecipes.com. You can save several to my recipes and then print out a shopping list.Most are printer friendly and I do print out my favorites on 3x5 size, but usually take the laptop to the kitchen.

I don't =- never know when the site will close down. I save recipes on my computer though. I highlight those I find online and copy to a word document and save it to a file. I print out those I want to try. When they're tried and called "keepers", I file them in a special 3 ring binder.

I never even thought of saving them online. Sounds interesting.

I had created a private yahoo group (free) for my eyes only and store the recipes on there. I can make files that way. They will always be online and can print out easy. Also if I find a recipe online, just copy and paste it to the catergory. Also you can post links by catergories.

This is a cool way to use an address book, calendar, has a pop up reminder, birthday list, etc.

If you do swaps you can keep a list on there also.

has different templates to keep list of books etc.

If you set up yahoo group, make it private, and for your eyes only. You can also save photos on it.
