What’s New on Our Website: Latest Features & Updates

Hello!

It’s been a week since the new site design launched, and I wanted to share a few highlights. I worked with Lindsay from Purr Design and the collaboration was wonderful—especially for someone like me who isn’t very tech-savvy. Lindsay is incredibly talented and made the whole process easy and enjoyable.

One of the most useful additions is a new recipe format that includes time, yield and other details, and makes recipes simple to print and save. I’m still going through older posts to reformat recipes by hand, so not everything is printable yet. I know that’s frustrating—I’m doing this solo and it’s time-consuming—so if you need a recipe now you may have to copy and paste from the older posts for a little while. I appreciate your patience and promise I’m getting through them as quickly as I can.

Alongside the print button, you’ll see a save button. We’ve added ZipList so you can save recipes to a personal recipe box, build shopping lists and create menu plans. Many readers requested this feature, and it helps keep recipes organized. To use ZipList, sign up with your email so you can access your saved items from anywhere. If you prefer not to use ZipList, that’s fine—the recipe index is still available in the navigation bar and you can stick to whatever system works for you.
