— A Family Recipe Binder for Yourself
If you enjoy cooking, even if you aren’t a professional chef, there are surely dishes you would like to save – those your family & friends ask you to bring to parties, recipes downloaded from the internet, or a creation made by a friend.
A pinch of this, a dash of that and you have a tasty dish. The creative juices are flowing!
If experimenting, jot down the ingredients you use, in case it ends up being a winner.
Save the recipe for yourself, and share it with others.
Keep this binder for yourself, record your own decadent delights, and refer to it when that urge strikes to make that double chocolate, gooey, but yummy dessert. Again.
One day, maybe your recipes will continue to pass down in the family because your recipes are there in the recipe binder.
Pass down family recipes and your own love of cooking.

— A Family Recipe Binder for the Kids
Junior chefs can join you in the kitchen, helping to cook lunch, dinner, or a special dessert.
When they come across a meal that they wouldn’t mind having again, let them write it in the book.
(Younger ones may need a little help, of course.)
Include ingredients, instructions, the date, and any comments they may want to make about their creation.
As time passes, there will eventually be a book of recipes and memories of their younger days spent with you.
