Recently I've been wanting to revamp the titles on my recipe dividers. I've been doing some research to try to figure out the best set of 12, but it's a hard choice! I want enough titles to separate everything, but I don't want to go overboard either. So, I'm looking for your help. What do you think of the new list vs. the old list? I've bolded the titles that are different between the two.
ORIGINAL TITLES
Appetizers
Breads
Soups & Salads
Side Dishes
Main Dishes
Cakes & Cookies
Pies
Breakfast
Sauces
Cocktails
{Blank}
{Blank}
NEW TITLES
Appetizers
Breads
Soups & Salads
Vegetables
Side Dishes
Main Dishes
Poultry & Fish
Beef & Pork
Cakes & Cookies
Pies
Breakfast
Beverages
So, what do you think? Will you miss the two blank dividers that you can write on? Are there other categories that you can't live without? Leave a comment below, on my Facebook page, or email me (amanda@exquisiteinks.com) with your thoughts.
Thanks for your help!!
Great idea! I think I’ve decided to do option 2, but I’ll replace Beverages with Miscellaneous since most people probably don’t have too many beverage recipes anyway. Since I am more of a baker than a cook, I love having 2 dividers for my desserts!
Won’t miss the blanks at all and I think ‘sauce’ is a good one to leave off. My sauce recipes are usually part of another recipe. I like ‘beverage’ too over ‘cocktails.’ It is a much broader and useful category.
Just a thought…..I might combine cookies/cakes/pies into a ‘dessert’ divider. That would leave an extra card that I would make ‘miscellaneous’ for all those odd recipes like the ones I have for playdo and homemade household cleaners.
