5.0 out of 5 stars Love It, March 23, 2008

This review is from: Cath Kidston Recipe Organizer (Ring-bound)

After I got married, I started cooking and accumulating recipes. I needed a way to get organized! This recipe organizer was just the thing I needed. Since is basically a glorified three ring binder, I am able to print recipes off the internet and just put them under the appropriate tab. Each tab is also a folder for random recipes that you cut out or find. It is a great product that I would definitely recommend. After seeing mine, my mom asked me for one. It would be an excellent wedding gift.

First, beautiful! Second, actual size of a standard 3-ring binder is a Big Big plus!
I am a highly organized person, so I am having a great time moving all of my recipes from my old recipe binder to this lovely new one.
I have long been a fan of this recipe method.

I believe in clutter-free efficiency wherever possible. I do not keep stacks of unused cookbooks just because they were gifts or such. I also don't keep every recipe picked up in stores or clipped from magazines (magazines are for reading, then sharing by passing along to nursing homes or health clinic waiting rooms, not to save as dusty shrines).

So, this system is perfect for keeping only those recipes that I will actually use and have them attractively displayed in an easy-to-access format. When I received this in the mail today I did add 3-hole punched page protectors immediately, as recommended. Also scanned and saved a copy of the recipe and shopping list pages for future needs.

Cons: Not enough sections. "Misc" is to vague for all the categories that I am needing. In my old one I had breads, pasta, fish, poultry, meat in addition to the ones provided here. So I am still trying to make some arrangement decisions. I will be happily moving things around in here for days!

Pros: The size is much better than my old "tall and narrow" version. Fits real size pages if you print from the internet or add clear protectors. It has a great coating for wiping off spills, but I think I will laminate the pockets anyway for extra longevity. I love the equivalency charts inside the cover. As much as I love the organization, its best Pro is that it is just so girly-girl pretty!

I was a bit disappointed with this organizer. Sleeves to hold recipe cards would have been a plus. I had hoped to be able to print out my recipes onto the pages provided, but no way to so. They have to be hand written to fit the format. Unless you are up to writing, not the organizer to create a "family" recipe gift book.
