I think it would be good to have recipies from a broad range of categories..
I'm also one who either neglects to print out e-books, or loses them when do print them out.
ETA - oops forgot preferences:
Vegetarian
Baby / Toddler Recipes
Pregnancy Recipes
Desserts
Slow Cooker Recipes
Low Carb Recipes
Low GI Recipes
Soups
Gluten Free Recipes
Mains
Pastas

For those members who have suffered a recent loss or dealing with LTTTC&AC it might be a bit confronting to open the book and have those recipies right at the front. I often flip through my recipie books when I need a bit of inspiration so i see alot more of the front pages than the later pages.
Maybe that's just me...... |
I totally agree dach.

Maybe in the other section you could have a range of recipes from different cultures that we don't normal see (not your typical stir fry being chinese kind of thing)... would love to try some more exotic recipes from people who can actually cook it and its not impossible kind of thing??
| This would be great too, I might hunt through the recipe thread and see if I can find some to email Kelly.
Yael - have you got any Kosher recipes for us? Maybe Babke - I would LOVE to kow how to make that!

hope I am not to late, I bumed up my vote in the poll DAH hehehe I voted before reading and I voted for the $20 inc postage but after reading how big and great the book could possibly be and how much postage alone would be, and I agree with Dachloster that a good recipe book in the shops costs atleast $40, so I would be interested no matter what as I have been waiting in anticipation for this book and really really want a copy, I would not buy an ebook as I know I would never print it out I would much prefer a hard copy.
my order of prefrance would be
Vegetarian
Baby / Toddler Recipes
Entrees
Mains
Desserts
Pastas
Soups
Slow Cooker Recipes
Gluten Free Recipes
Pregnancy Recipes
Other
Low Carb Recipes
Low GI Recipes
I love the cover to Kelly its rather cute and suits the book really well I think.

Hey everyone.... just found this thread.... what a fantastic idea... I'm a bit of a baby cookbook addict.. mainly I guess because I have never found one that suits all my needs... Love everyones ideas for recipes but also I would love to see ideas on Healthy snacks, I know this sounds like a bit of a waste of space but I am always looking for alternatives to cheese and vegemite sandwiches and bread sticks!!!!
I'm also leaning towards the printed version as I usually need to have the book in the kitchen with me.... I never print stuff out!! Maybe give people the option to buy an online version or the printed one!!
I love the cover!! Brilliant idea and a big thank you to bellybelly!! |

In the "other" section I vote that a few cocktails are added, for example: Cailin's Abysinthe one!  And I'll see if I can find the recipe for a "Mudslide" (contains kaluha, tia maria, milk or cream and a Flake etc)
ETA: if you have to cull, don't worry about the cocktails then

If it were an ebook would there be less call for culling? I'm for whatever means the most recipes!
