At the cake party a boy told me that when he was child his mother used to give him hand written recipes on pieces of paper and he had to type them up on a type writer and this made him feel very important. At the party there was a ‘Recipe Card Station’ set up, complete with a type writer and coloured cards. At first I found it a little difficult to get the hang of which resulted in very inconsistent typing. This includes some lines running over each other, dyslexic spelling and sentences that mistakenly continued off the edge. Nevertheless it was great fun and everyone had a go.
Recipe cards are a cool retro way to keep and exchange your recipes. You can begin a collection so that you preserve all your favourite recipes and store them together. They also make neat and inexpensive presents for friends, and particularly for your Mum or Grandmother.
This is a gorgeous template recipe card with a basket of strawberries design that you can use: http://www.razzledazzlerecipes.com/artistcafe/recipecards/strawrecard.htm Simply save and print onto thick card, then cut them up. You can then load it into a typewriter, or if you don’t have one, handwrite it with a nice pen. This template and more can be found at Razzle Dazzle Recipes.
There are dozens more sites on the web with free recipe card templates.
Some can be found at:
