Breaking Bad Habits #2
I have another bad habit to add to my list.
1. Leaving clean clothes on the pool table.
2. Making a recipe, loving it, and not being able to find it again!
I hate this! I have made multiple recipes that I loved and have not been able to find them to repeat them. The one in particular today was blueberry scones. I know I'd combined recipes from multiple sites to come up with a good blueberry scone recipe. I even made a lemon icing as a topping.
I could have sworn I put the recipe into a binder I keep for things I've printed off the internet. No such luck.
Recently, I started typing and saving or copying and pasting recipes into Google Docs. That is, if I remember to do it. I must have made this one before that though.
Now, I'm hoping to blog about the new recipes I'm finding on my blog. I just have to remember to take pictures of them.
That doesn't help me now though. I'll just have to start all over again.
Another place I've found recipes that I can't find now is magazines. A couple years ago I made some awesome pumpkin muffins that didn't call for cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice (I'm deathly allergic!). I don't remember what magazine I got them out of, or where to find the recipe again. Grr!
Here's to breaking this bad habit and saving recipes from now on.

This is exactly why I have a food blog. It is SO helpful, easy to search and allows Carl to see what he wants to request for dinner!
