Great idea, Sox! Thanks for starting this thread!

I've been staying inside mostly - due to the heat and also not driving.....

Since I love to cook I've been working on my recipe collection and getting everything categorized so I can easily find what I'm looking for.

I found my Mom's old recipe box and have been reading some of the ones I remember so fondly. It's like a walk backwards in time. Honestly....I can read the recipe for her Applesauce Cake and it's Christmas again (she only made this cake at Christmas time) and I can actually smell it baking.

Many of her recipes are in her handwriting on scraps of paper and I've put those in individual baggies to help preserve them.

I'm also trying to write note cards to everyone but I can only do several a day 'cos it makes my hand hurt to do too much writing at one time.

Despite the heat I'm actually having a nice summer. Just me and the cats cooped up inside....napping when we feel like it......just enjoying each others company!
