Emily's Recipe Book

I have a ridiculously useless memory these days. And seeing that I've been on an experimental cooking kick lately, with some degree of success, I've decided to record my work so that I can use it later when I'm in a less experimental mood and with less luck. So here are my recipes and when I first made them.

You'll see a bit of a hiatus between 2008 and 2011. For a while, I fell back on these old recipes, and found ways to cook multiple meals over the weekend and make them still taste good after frozen. Perhaps I should write some of my tips up sometime for this... And then finally I got around to discovering new recipes, and my PC had died. So it took me a while to get FTP set up on my MacBooks to update this!
