I usually write them on a scrap of paper first and then when I have changed the recipe to work I write it out. I do also have a pile of pages taken from magazines which could do with sorting through.....<br /><br />Hope you have a lovely Christmas :)sustainablemumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04099701194160334671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6235841642149423068.post-623966263680067202013-12-24T14:17:26.644+00:002013-12-24T14:17:26.644+00:00Recording December the way you do is such a lovely...Recording December the way you do is such a lovely idea, I wish I'd done something like that when my children were little.
