Recipe Book

Collecting recipes from cookbooks, friends and, of course, the favorites from childhood is one of my homemaking pleasures.
All of these have been written on decorative 3x5 index cards and filed (alphabetically) in a little card box. As I recently ran out of these cards and space in the box, I have looked around to find acceptable substitutes. It turns out, however, that most people would rather use 4x6 cards and that most of the books and boxes are intended for this size as well.
Enter the improvisatory spirit!

1 three ring binder
2 packs of 3x5 photo pages
5 sheets of scrapbooking paper


I think that I really want it to be spring. It turned out a little brighter than I usually go for but at least it also matches the shelf paper in my kitchen cupboards.
