Look forward to seeing it, JD. Just make sure you number the pages and do an index! I spend ages going through my books trying to find a favourite recipe! :-))
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

I intend doing that MJ but haven't got around to it yet. Anything I do reasonably regularly is at the front of the section so I am not having too many problems finding anything (unless I have misfiled it in the wrong section  :-)) :-)))

Judy I have just had a look at your recipe box and it has sert me thinking. Are your recipes A4 size? Where did you purchase your dividers? Do you have your recipes stored portrait or landscape way?
I'm just thinking it may be a better idea then mine as I have it in the pantry and I've just noticed that I marked the wall a few times pulling the file out. (It's back in a corner)
Thanks.

Sorry I'm late getting back to you on this one Cookie, big day out with the grand-kids then I lost all my unread postings.
Yes the recipes are A4, made my own dividers by laminating a blank piece of A4 and just attaching a tab on the top, they are stored the portrait way.  At the moment I have heaps of unlaminated ones in the box but because of the neat fit and plenty of laminated ones already in there, they all stand nicely.  I will get DH to do some more laminating for me soon but they would be perfectly OK to leave in there as they are really.

Thank you. I'm going to keep my eye out for a lovely box that will look nice out on the bench. Perhaps I could get DH to make me a jarrah one to match the jarrah in the house.  :P
