Family Notebook

When Tim and I got married, his mom handed me a notebook full of her recipes that she's collected over the years.  I thought this was such a fantastic idea, that I created my own notebook.  Every new recipe I experiment with, I ask Tim if it's 'notebook worthy'.  If it is, I type it up really nice and put it in the notebook with a copy also saved in a document on a USB.  If it was just an 'ok' dish, I keep working on it until it's amazing.  If it was horrible, I pitch it.

My goal is to fill a notebook with 'restaurant worthy' recipes that my kids will be proud to have and I would be confident in having published one day.  The book is called, believe it or not, Tried & True.  Tried & True has been 'published' 3 times so far, each edition different from the last.  I'm dreaming of having this cookbook really published for my kids by the time they are getting married.

I guess I need to figure out how to copyright a title. 

To be continued ...
