    My friend bought me one like this one for my birthday last year (mine had a different cover). It's really nice, and there are some plastic pockets for cuttings etc. I think it should be easy to find refills for it too if I run out of space.

    It would probably be nicer and more personal if you did it in the style of a scrap book.

    You can individualize all the pages based on the ingredients you are putting in.

    Scrap booking is huge and so lovely... try googling it alternatively I think there is a thread on the craft forum :T

I'll see if I can post a pic :cool: No i can't, sorry :(

    It's a bit too pricey for me but thinking of backing a note book in floral material ;)

    My son bought me a beautiful recipe keeper from Amazon for Christmas.Its from a company called "Welcome Books". There is a page at the back which says if you need more pages then you can contact them at https://www.welcomebookstore.com. I have no idea how much it cost but it is fantastic.:D
