I have a recipe book with blank pages for my son (had one for my older son who took it with him when he left home).
Any recipe they cooked and liked got copied into their recipe book over the years.
My older son is still adding to his.
It's like a little ring binder so you can add to it.
I also got one for myself, so I've copied out all the recipes I use from any of the books/websites or magazines as I've made them if we like them, plus a couple that were my grandmothers recipes or my dads.
There are about two dozen original books I keep, either because they were gifts from people, like my dads favourite recipe book, or because I just really like them, but they are more ornamental than used now.
They sit on top of my Welsh Dresser and really only get taken down to clean.
The rest get filtered out over time.
I tend to find there will be at most half a dozen recipes in any one book that any of us actually like the sound of enough to try.
Once we've been through those and copied the ones we like, that book sits around for a bit then ends up in the charity shop.
