Even those of us with huge cookbook collections acquire random recipes. There's just so long you can keep them stuffed in a box -- at least, if you ever hope to find them again. For several years I have used an ordinary looseleaf notebook from the office supply store, along with the single clear plastic document sheets, and it has indeed kept me a bit more organized. Thus I can find the 20-year-old chili recipe from my pal Bill (printed on a dot matrix printer), the photocopy of the paella recipe from the back of the box the paella pan came in, and a fig dessert recipe that apparently came off a package of figs years ago.
