good luck with your list – I have a list of things I was going to make last year and I kept getting distracted by newer ideas – but it is good to go back to when low in inspiration
What a good idea! maybe I should do something like this too, I always have so much trouble deciding what to make. PS. your cake from the last post looks so yummy!
That’s cool that you have a specific list. I have a giant rambling list of links and cookbooks to work my way through, but w/ no time limit.
I tried 120 new recipes in 2008 – well the ones I wrote down :).
120 is pretty good going Bethany, I always mean to buy a diary and write down what we eat every day, but never get round to it.
Jodye – I rip anything that catches my eye out of magazines and papers and put them all in a file which I then review once a month or so, usually throwing out lots and adpting others.
Johanna – I think I made 2 things on last years list. Having discovered that my body works best on a near vegan diet I have hardly cooked anything meaty for ages.
