OK, so I could use some advice.  As you probably know, I review cookbooks and test recipes most nights.  As I go through new cookbooks, I post-it dozens of recipes I'd like to try, just like everybody else.  And just like everybody else, I only get to a fraction of the recipes before I get distracted by something (in my case it's usually the next cookbook or the next deadline) and poof! the remaining recipes I wanted to try are never heard from again.

I've tried different ways of keeping track of them.  For example, I have a "Do Laters" bookmark here on Eat Your Books.  It would be easy to add my untested recipes to that list.  It would be easy to look them up when I made the weekly grocery list.  And then it would be easy to try them.  But somehow or other there's always something that interferes with one of those three steps, so on those few weeks when I'm not testing, I never get round to finding those old, promising recipes.

In my very first cooking binders from maybe 20 years ago--you know, the ones that have newspaper clippings taped to looseleaf or index cards [terms unfamiliar to my children italicized]--I have some charming old wishlist recipes I've never used.  For example, there's one for some kind of Vietnamese spring roll.  At the top, I scrawled "Like I'm ever going to make these!!!"  I was 19 then.  In the many years since, I've made spring rolls several times.  But I never thought of looking at that old recipe.

I know there's something I'm not thinking of.  So: how do you handle your recipe wishlist?  How do you remember what it was you wanted to try?  Do you use Eat Your Books to help you?  Do you surround yourself with Post-its?  Do you store everything online?  What works for you?
