I've been wanting a WLS friendly cookbook forever. I'm talking "Dummy for WLS patients cookbook". I'm a dummy in the kitchen. Just tell me where to send the $10, or whatever it comes out to be. And thank you.
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.

I am so in for this - consider this concent to use any and all of mine Terry (or anyone else) sends you - this will be a great project - I think you are nuts for taking it on but I am all for it
btw after this you might want to try this - one of the best things I ever did was buy a 3 ring binder and fill it with page protectors - and put all my favorites in them as I come across them - with the alterations I make so my mom or sister could cook my things my kids would eat if I was sick/had surgery/went on vacation etc - it also cuts way down on the number of cook books that I need to live in my kitchen - that, betty crocker (with notes) and 2 Dawn Hall ones are it

Thanks Danni!
I have tried doing the binder thing and it just wasn't organized enough for me. I think I have a touch of OCD... lol If I am going to take on organizing all of my recipes it is going to be functional, pretty, organized, and user friendly or I am not going to bother!! I have been researching cookbook software today and I found one that I think is going to be perfect.
- You can create multiple cookbooks. (Then I can achieve my goal of having the "yours, mine and theirs". Or in this case, "mine, OH, and in-laws".)
- It has a capture feature where it will pull recipes that you find on-line too.
- It does nutritional calculations too. You can change serving sizes and it will recalculate...
Anyway, that was more than you wanted to know but I am excited now! Oh and my Betty Crocker is falling apart so I know what you mean there!
