Requiem for a wedding present

[Lady's Human]

I prefer paper.

I don't own a smartphone, never will. I want my phone to be a phone.

My books are actual books, I prefer actually turning pages, and sitting down with a cup of coffee and a (fill in the blank electronic device) just isn't the same.

The same goes for my cooking. Every other week or so we sit down and plan the menu for the next couple of weeks, then create a shopping list around the menu. On paper.

The recipes we've created or altered are in the process of being turned into a book for use in the kitchen, as the green notebook is getting pretty
sad.

Hear, hear, me too! Someone recently told me bookmarks have become collectibles, I said no they are quite functional still with me! LOL

There are some great online sites which allow you to make a book and include photos - you can snap pics of what the finished product is like! Friend of mine did this 2 years back with some family recipes, gave the books as Christmas gifts. She went back through old albums and included photos of passed and present family members in with the recipe pictures. Took almost 7 months to pull it all together, but the result was fantastic and well loved by all the recipients. I can't remember the site she used, but would be glad to call her and find out, if you are interested. Editted to add: tastebook.com
