One of the best things about technology is being able to duplicate work without actually doing it twice. In the case of creating a family recipe cookbook, technology lets you input recipes once, manipulate them, and then make more than one copy, all within minutes.
You couldn’t do that with a typewriter. Even the magical old IBM Selectric typewriter couldn’t keep up with even the most primitive word processor that technology has brought to us. You really couldn’t be as up close and personal as we are today with a technology-created family recipe cookbook.
For example, through family recipe cookbook software (such as Matilda’s Fantastic Cookbook Software), you can make your own family recipe cookbook up close and personal by adding photos to recipes, including family stories and pictures of family members, keeping track of their addresses and birthdays, and selecting a standard page design (we offer 27 different ones), or even creating your own design using our cookbook software templates.
You can choose to personalize your family recipe cookbook any way you like (and do these personalizations just once). Then you can share them with family or friends near and far. What a lot of duplicate work is now saved by technology-created family recipe cookbooks!
For me the best part about technology is when it comes to printing the family recipe cookbook for others. Some family members don’t want the section on Baby Food, for example, so I can customize their family recipe cookbook to include only the sections and recipes they really want.
Ain’t technology and technology-created family recipe cookbooks grand?
Happy cookbooking,
Matilda
