Here’s a great little story featuring us in the Lexington Herald:

HOMEMADE COOKBOOKS

As families gather for holiday parties and dinners, there usually is an exchange of recipes. Sometimes one person will decide to copy and compile them into a booklet. It’s a time-consuming chore, unless you seek help from CookbookPeople.com.

Company owners Ted and Erin Miller sell software that lets users print a cookbook from home, drastically cutting the cost of printing copies. Users simply type the information in the space provided.

“We started this software business two years ago because we honestly believe in our slogan, ‘Food makes family.’ As families become more spread apart, there’s an increasing need for ways for us to share our traditions. What can bind better than the smells and tastes of our family recipes?” Ted Miller said.

“You can look on the Internet and find 10 million recipes for meatloaf. But none of them will taste quite like your own mom’s meatloaf. If your mom passes on without sharing that recipe, you are losing not just a cherished family member, but a cooking tradition that honors her,” he said.

The company’s software lets you easily create a professional-looking cookbook, and you can see the cookbook in its entirety, with covers, address book, birthday calendar and biography sections built-in, Miller said.

“Make your family cookbook a living, breathing document that gets added to regularly, not just by you but by everyone,” Miller said.

In your family cookbook you can include: photos of events and family members, a short family tree or bibliography, address book, and birthday calendar.

Matilda’s Fantastic Cookbook software ($29.95) at www.cookbookpeople.com does all the organizing for you.
