LOL! No! I use a program called Mastercook. It's searchable by any number of parameters. I have 60K recipes in it.

Just googled Mastercook. That looks pretty cool. Years ago, I bought a program called “Dinner at 8” (same idea — recipes, searchable, it even combined a shopping list for you). Unfortunately, the software was outdated within a year or two and wouldn’t run on any of the newer operating systems. So, I resorted to good old word files, organized in folders. It’s searchable and does the trick.

In about 1998, I actually wanted to set up a website for recipes and do something similar. I wish I had done it then. I still haven’t seen anything as good as the framework I laid out that could easily have sustained itself with quality advertising.

There’s an equivalent to Master Cook for Macs - It’s MacGourmet - and it can import Master Cook files too :)
