Organization 101 - Recipes [Freebie!]

With the start of the new year we all have goals and resolutions. I know for myself, organizing is a major goal and resolution for my family and I also know that by surfing around blog-land, I can see that organizing is a major part of your 2011 also.

For today's first installment of 'Organizing 101' I thought I would show you what I do with recipes that I find online. Of course I can always print them off the internet and in some cases I do... however 99% of the recipes that I make, I usually end up changing around quite a bit, so instead of having a pile of papers with scribbles, grease stains and stuck on potato, I will transfer them to some pretty, bright, fun and fresh 'Recipe Cards' that I create in Photoshop, perfect for filing in my 'Recipe Card' box.

I typically make my recipe cards with a standard format. Either one large area for jotting down the recipe, or two sections for ingredients and one section for the actual recipe. Of course if I have a recipe that is pretty lengthy, than I will continue writing down my recipe on a 2nd recipe card [of the same print pattern] and just write '1 of 2'... etc on the bottom corner of the large white block.

FREEBIES!!

These recipe cards measure 4x6 and can be printed to fit whatever size you are looking for. Just click on the image, save to your computer and than open/print with any program that you can use to print files/adjust sizes. I have mine printed on cardstock for more durability, but you can print them on any kind of paper. Maybe even plain paper and than laminate them perhaps? -Whichever the case, they are clean, simple yet fun.

Enjoy! :)
