Family Recipes and Stories
I have a suggestion and recommendation for those who are trying to preserve family information.
Two years ago, I asked my adult son what he wanted for Christmas. His answer shocked me! He wanted me to create a book of my recipes. After much thought and trying to come up with how to organize, I created a simple template and started writing. He said specifically that it was to be handwritten, not typed. I created pages with my recipes then added comments or stories about the recipe. Eventually, I added my Mother's, Mother-in-law's, Grandmother's and anyone else from the family I could think of with comments or stories about each one. I wish that I had pictures to include but do not.
I created a three binder and included each page in a sheet protector. That way, we could add any additional pages as needed. He was very happy with the result and says he uses it frequently plus, he could pass this down to his children. Just an idea before those recipes and people are gone.
