Storing recipes from the forum
« on: December 29, 2011, 11:27:37 am »
Hi, just wondering is there somewhere I can bookmark recipes I like or want to do? Or do I need to note them somewhere else. I'm on my iPad and was taking screenshots and saving them, but the memory is only so big, and I deleted to reduce on the iPad (after backing up on the computer) from my photo camera roll, but it deleted them from my recipes album too... :-(

Otherwise I guess I can save a notes file of the name to search next time I want it? Thanks a million.

I'm old fashioned Lilli - I don't trust computers not to crash so I like a piece of paper in my hand  :-))

Yes Lilli, actually I pile them on top of the microwave hoping to do a few of them (which I do but I can't keep up with them) but eventually go through the pile and file in 'to do' folders in different categories.

Ok, MIT do some of that too JD, my sister gave me a book for Xmas called paper flow, and I'm reading and developing my own system to manage the paper flow in and out of my house at the moment so it may be added as a project component... But mostly I think I'm happy not to have too much extra paperwork. Iykwim.

Evernote looks awesome, it is downloading as I type. Yay!

Great thing is you can edit as well so whenever I do a recipe conversion or redo a recipe I can add or change things especially weights of ingredients  ;D you will love it! You can create tags too.  I do the so I can search for 'forum recipe' or  'chicken' or biscuits etc

Evernote does look interesting but it looks like you can only access is if you are on-line.  Is that correct?

You can also access it when you are off-line. It just won't sync any changes until you are on-line again.

Oh wow I am in love with Evernote. I have put at the tag the type of recipe and then I can even search for that and just my 'bread' recipes or whatever come up. Brilliant!!!!

Great Lilli  ;D it is awesome isn't it! And if you have an iPhone it means you can access all your recipes when at the shops  ;)

Yeah, I do and I will love that feature too. So much better than the standard notes that apple provide. Thanks a million, so glad I asked.
