recipes

Grandma's Rum Cake- our favorite recipe!

レシピがたくさん溜まってしまいました
英語と日本語のレシピ
すごい数です

I have accumulated a fair amount of recipes over the years.
Naturally, I have the English recipes and their Japanese counterparts.
And that's a lot!


ネットで見つけたレシピをプリントして使っていたものですから
必要なものを見つけるのが困難になってきました

It was becoming more difficult every year to find what I needed, 
especially with more and more recipes found online resulting in a large paper stack.


MSオフィス2010に、OneNoteというプログラムがありますね
これを使って、レシピの整理をすることにしました

Included in the MS Office 2010, is a program called OneNote
and I have decided to organize my recipes using this program.

Japanese recipe notebook

English recipe notebook

たぶんご存知でしょうが
 OneNoteは簡単に言うと バインダー・ノートブックのような物です
書き込みは勿論、写真、ビデオ,リンクを貼り付けたり、サーチ機能もあり
選んだノートブックをネットでシェアー可能、
キッチンで別のPCを使って見たり、遠くに住む家族(息子)もアクセスすることができます^^

You may already know this, but OneNote works like your binder notebook.
It allows users to type notes, insert photos, embed videos, paste in Web links,
search it all, organize it all
and has an option to share your selected notebook online if you so chose.
Meaning, I can open it with my laptop in the kitchen
and our son can look into his mom's recipe box from across the state.^^


山のように積み重なったレシピのサイトを見つけては
C&P して、一枚ずつ片付けています 

 何はともあれ、バレンタインデーまでに、あのチョコレートケーキのレシピが見つかるかしら?

 For now, I just need to spend time sifting through the stack of paper 
looking for the recipe's website. From there, copy, paste, and label.


In the mean while, I hope I can find the chocolate cake recipe 
I've been looking for in time for the Valentine's day.

もっと早くからやれば良かったなぁ~と、反省
皆さん、レシピはどのように保管してあるのでしょう?

I very much regret that I didn't start this sooner.
How do you organize your recipes?


追記; ガーデニングの記録方法も真剣に考え直さねば、と思っています

ETA; I have to evaluate my garden record-keeping method as well
-too much information to remember.

Maybe here or here.
