So, if you're not schooled in the art of x-rays (which I wasn't until I had 3 boys) this is Ryan's pneumonia. It isn't bad in this picture. The bad news is that these x-rays were about 9 days in on an antibiotic and Ryan was feeling rotten. Being the awesome mother that I am, I kept sending him to school and then threatening to take him back down to the doctor if he didn't quit complaining. He was so crabby and fell asleep one night about 7:00 so I decided that I would take him in the next day. I felt terrible when they told me that he really was still sick and they put him on two more antibiotics. Hopefully he'll be feeling better soon.
While I have been doing a lot of catering to Ryan's every need (ice cream for breakfast and such), I've been going through a few things. Here's the big question:
How do you organize your recipes?
It's no secret that I'm a fan of being organized, but lately I'm not sure what to do with my mass amounts of recipes that aren't in books. I used to put all my recipes, neatly typed, on 4x6 cards and organized alphabetically, but now I also have this huge pile of recipes that I've ripped out of my magazines (being that I subscribe to like 5 cooking magazines). I hate to keep unnecessary magazines, so I rip out recipes that I like as I read the magazine and then I toss it in the trash when I'm done. So now I have all these recipes torn out of magazines and printed from online all in a 3-ring binder, but it just isn't efficient with the pages being so thin. 
I'm thinking that I'm going to have to either type them all up on cards, but I will loose the pretty pictures. I'm also tossing around the idea of copying my neighbor's idea and scrapbooking (digitally) all of my recipes so that they are in print and have a picture of them (I would also have them easily on hand to share or pass down if I did this). It would take a long time, but in the end would be so worth it.
Again....
How do you organize your recipes?
Maybe I can copy your wisdom.
