Need to organise a shitload of loose printed out recipes (pretty much all mains). On the one hand could put them in a folder and order it by cuisine then alphabetically. The other.. done a fair bit of filemaker shizz over the years so could do a pretty basic relational thing but reading off paper just feels authentic.. Something about reading well used oil stained recipes makes them taste better. Matter of 'you could, but should you'.
I have manilla envelopes with recipes cut from magazines and stuff. There's mains, snacks, dessert etc. I'll pick one recipe out and stick it on the fridge. Once I try it out, I decide whether to keep it or toss it. If I keep it, it goes into my mini binder along with any notes.

Ooh that's a good way to do it with different colours. Hrmm.
