Yes!!!! I totally understand why this is so important. My mom passed away 2 years ago and her recipe box is such a treasure. Just seeing her handwriting brings me peace and joy.
I’m sorry to hear that. I can imagine it’s a comfort having that. Just as food is such a comfort and something you do out of love often, it’s almost like something you can pass on. A little bit of love and comfort ❤️ Lots of love xxx
Many years ago my mother who passed 10 years ago made each of her five children a memory book. Black and white photos and a history of our family and members. News print copies, etc. We have deep roots in the military , etc. its rather plain but rich history. In the back were the recipes, what was so very special is they were copies of the actual recipe cards so that we actually have our grandmother’s handwriting. I love that the copy although clear shows the faded index card. I treasure it but keep it safe and have a book which contains the recipes so that the other may remain a keepsake just for looking at.
I love this so much. When my mom passed away, and when my grandma passed away, we made cookbooks of all the recipes with some of them still being in their own handwriting. This year for Christmas a dear friend has passed away, and I am making cookbooks with some of her recipes for all my friends.
Lovely collection of family recipes and memories Lisa. I have created one in an old binder for my boys for when I am no longer here. I have added pics of my boys with their Gran, which they cherish now :) You do need to think about those who are left behind and create for them :)
This reminds me of the gift I did for my brothers wedding. I had custom cutting boards made with our opa’s dish and our grandmother apple pie recipes! It really is special those recipes!
I was lucky enough to get some beautiful planners (Webster’s Pages)from my local Tuesday Morning in clearance before it closed down and have been loving using them as journals. I have been working on a bright and cheerful one just like yours. 😊
Thank you so so so much for this idea! My father past away and i am so sorry that i don’t have his receipes😢 This is a fantastic way of writing down my own receipes for myself and my children.
I have wanted to do one of these for AGES! Have I gotten it done? No :(. I thought I would get one done for my daughter for her bridal shower or wedding but nope - didn't get it done then either. Definitely on my to do list. My girls would want the recipes and my granddaughters need to know the stories.
Love this Lisa! What a treasure!

@@GeorgieGirl1012 Wow, so much thought went into those gifts. What treasures to have 💗

That’s so lovely!
I love the idea of adding photos like that too ❤️
finally an example of these journals with notes, writing.
Love this SO MUCH! I’m so glad you decided to keep the original brownie recipe. The marks and stains are memories! ❤
Yes! Thank you! I wasn’t going to but I thought of all the Christmas’s it’s been used and those marks are part of the memories 😊

That's a great idea! What a special gift ❤️
So pretty ❤
