What are your recipe sources?

Hi everyone,

First of all, I'm totally new to iVillage and this is my very first discussion topic - so pls do forgive any mistakes I make along the way!

Anyway, I'm researching where people find meal recipes and food inspiration in general. I've found a couple of so-called 'market intelligence' reports - but I'd much rather hear it straight from the horse's mouth (I'm not calling anyone a horse btw!)...

I'm guessing mopst of us source recipes in roughly this order:

- Word of mouth i.e. family, friends, colleagues, community sites like iVillage
- Search engines
- Cookbooks
- TV shows

Does this tally with everyone? Are there any other sources I've overlooked?

Would really appreciate lots of replies...

Thanks v much for your help!

Olidee

Hi no lurking. Puter crash several months ago and lost touch with the site until I was looking for new Holidya recipes and found you ladies again! Now I get on every other day or so and love all the stuff I find here.

Did you guys do the ornament swap on here this yr? I just didnt have any time to take notice or participate.

I didn't do the ornament swap, but we had a post card swap a few years ago and the holiday cards were FLYING!
