How do you organize your favorite recipes?

My mom was complaining about her old school recipes, that have been passed down from generation to generation, falling apart. Not wanting to have to re-write them every few years, I decided to make her an online recipe organizer to keep her recipes.
While figuring out how to make it/what features I should implement, I decided to make it so that anyone can register a user and upload their recipes as well.

I invite anyone who is having the same problems to go to
http://recipe.gauzza.com

and make a user to back up your recipes and be able to access them anywhere with an internet connection.

Also you can view other recipes users have uploaded to get new idea's and add new recipes to your cooking repertoire.

I copy any recipes I find online into an online recipe site called One tsp. -- which allows me to later access them from a web browser, or from my iPhone.

Also worth a shot is http//onetsp.com - a new site I've been building over the last few weeks. It's meant to be incredibly simple for you to collect and manage all of your recipes in one place.

An added benefit is that you can access your recipes from your mobile phone as well (http://onetsp.mobi). Sign up and give it a shot!

I am far from what you'd call organized with recipes. Which is kind of funny, because I'm normally a big organizer. I think I have so much stuff that I find getting started a bit intimidating.

But, I do have a file "bucket" -- one of those folders that's closed on three sides -- into which I slip notes, scraps, magazine pages, internet printouts and recipes others have written out for me. I know they're there, and they can't fall out, so it's somewhat functional, though quite stopgap.

I also have things I use regularly slipped into the back of Joy of Cooking. And I write directly in my cookbooks (with pencil) when I make permanent modifications to a recipe.

The back covers of my cookbooks are also covered with notes and recipes. Always in pencil so I can change them or completely remove the if necessary.

But I've got big plans to compile all of the best of it into a cookbook for friends and family. Someday?
