I understand. I have a recipe folder with sub-folders of my own
pictures and recipes on my computer. I'm doing it for my
grandchildren, not my children. My kids have been able to replicate
the dishes I make that they like without quizzing me about them. It's
interesting to see their personalities come out. Son always puts his
own twist on it, but when DD likes something she wants hers to be
exact - and it is.
