Hi Kalyn! I cannot tell you how much I love your website! It’s really the only one I use when I’m looking for recipes. The only thing that would make it better is to have an option on your website for users to create a recipe list, similar to AllRecipes.com. That would be fantastic. Anyway, thanks for all you do!
Thanks Pat; so glad you are enjoying the recipes. I recommend using Pinterest to save recipes you want to make, I’m afraid I’ll never be able to offer the same features as AllRecipes.com which has a huge team of technology people.
Hi Kalyn! I would like to say how much I agree with Pat Sawyer’s post. Â You’re receipts are simply fantastic!
