family cookbook
“How much time does it take to make a family cookbook?” This is a question our customers often ask when buying our Matilda’s Fantastic Cookbook Software.

The answer is as simple or as complex as our customers want to hear (we didn’t just fall off the turnip truck, you know.)  How much time it takes to make a family cookbook is dependent upon 5 important areas of discussion, which we ask right back:

1. What’s Your Motivation?
Is there a deadline, such as a holiday, birthday, family reunion, charity sale, or other special event coming that necessitates the family cookbook being completed?  Or, are there perhaps others who are expecting the family cookbook to be completed by a specific date that you don’t want to disappoint?

2. How Many Recipes?
Is there a large collection of recipes to sort through, perhaps even to test before considering them for the family cookbook?  Some time will also be needed to add the recipes into the recipe template (whether by typing them in, or cutting and pasting from other files).

3. High or Low Interest?
Is making a family cookbook a decision that has been made because of a desire to preserve special family memories?  Or, perhaps a promise has been made (to oneself or others) for seeing the project through to success?

4. Who Will Be Involved?
Is the family cookbook going to be a solo project or one shared by a group of individuals?  A general rule of thumb is that the more people involved, the slower the cookbook-making process will be.

5. How Are Your Computer Skills?
Is the person or group comfortable with typing and using computer software?  Matilida’s is as easy as cookbook softwares come (we like to say that if you can use email, you can use our software.)

So, how much time does it take to make a family cookbook?
It depends. One hour. 40 hours. 20 days. 5 weeks. You decide. With Matilda’s Fantastic Cookbook Software, it is really all up to you.

Happy Cookbooking,

Matilda
