Can you add notes to ingredients or are you confined to a pick list that you can't edit? Example: 1/4 cup Parmesan (but I use 1/3 cup)

Yes. Once you have imported a recipe, you can change it or annotate it. If you type in your own recipe, you can put in whatever information you want.

My favorite sources of recipes are (free) Email/RSS feed subscriptions & Twitter for: Kalyn's Kitchen; SkinnyTaste.com; Once Upon A Chef; Food52. After that, do a Google Search for specific food items, entrees, food ingredients and look at a few of the plethora of recipes that will be presented. 'Save As. . .' these recipes into a folder in your computer 'Documents' library. I also print the recipes I like. There is a 'print' button in most recipes. OR, for practical prints with pictures-- I copy/paste the text into a Word Document taking each little section of text at a time. Some pictures will print to a reasonable size but most will take up whole pages of paper. 'Copy' or 'Save As' them to a working folder in your 'Pictures' library; use a picture editor like "Paint.net" (free download for individuals/personal use) if you do not already have a suitable editor to resize them. I find most pics can be reduced 50% or sometimes to ~30.0 KB and the final print will be easy to put on the print-out page so you can have a picture. Double-spaced text (Ingredients?) can be single-spaced, other editing done, a By-Line added so you will know later where the recipe originated. Comments that add to the recipe can be included this way with much editing to eliminate waste space and items. Then 'Print' the final version you made in Word, 3-hole punch the page(s) and store in a 3-ring binder. Most of my personally edited recipe prints take up one or two pages (printed on both sides of a sheet of paper) complete with one or two pictures and the comments that provide tips & variations. Clear package-sealing tape can be used on one side of these multiple sheets to hold them together in the binder. Punch holes after taping. The tape also reinforces the edge for the holes if needed. If you do not have Word, "Open Office" is good and it is a free download; be very careful where you download it from.

I use my own recipes and also some my daughter has adapted. We have food allergies, so it keeps those possibilities out!

The reason I didn't list ingredients is because list is too fine for me to read. I'm legally blind, so I am afraid I can't answer your questions.

No they only have a set package of the flavors and don't let you mix your own selections. That would be a great idea to have that ability however.

Yes. There r 2 blank ones. U can use address labels to go over the existing ones. I used the blank ones for pasta and oriental recipes.

You can save weekly menu plans in the "Notes" section and you can retrieve the plans as desired. You can have shopping lists for multiple recipes to simplify shopping.

You can put your own recipes in this software. I did a cookbook for my children a few years ago and also put most of the recipes from it onto my Cook'n. you can also make your own cookbook from the software but at the time i found it easier to use MS Publisher. I need to do another printing because i have gotten many more requests for it, so may try it this time from Cook'n and see if it's easier with version 10. But it is a good place to organize all of your own family recipes.

Just check "medium." Sometimes this might not be what you want so just do what I do, if my meat does not come out the way I want it the first time, I just make a note and the next time I just use my own calculations.

you can "make", but as this is my first experience with the stuff, I take 1/4 t under my tongue until it's gone, then do another 1/4 t. I also do a bit of vitamin C powder and about 3 Brazil nuts, to enhance the absorption. Not messy. Not confusing. Just a tad "spicy" as this bites like vitamin C does. Not bad at all.

No. Recipe is only on the first card. I replaced the card with a photo I liked better. It comes with dividers that are on yellow orange cardboard.

I don't know why you couldn't but I am not the person to ask. I suggest that you visit their website: www.greatlakesgelatin.com and select the consumer section. They include recipe ideas and you may be able to ask your question directly on their site.

You just have to make sure you're buying the right kind of post it notes. The regular ones won't work in this. you have to buy the "Pop-up" notes. They are put together accordion style. Mine works great! I even make my own templates to put under the clear top to add my own style. Wrapping paper works well. :)

Yes, not sure exact..30 to 40 with dividers. Top says "Recipe" and then "ingredients" with the card filled with lines to write in your recipe.

No, this is not correct. The software gives you the option of entering specific brand information when entering a recipe but it is not required. If you add new ingredients to the ingredient list, you also have the option of entering the corresponding Brand information but it is not required. FYI...the Brand information is used by the software to compute nutrition facts, estimate grocery shopping costs, and so forth. One of the neat things about Cook'n is that you can actually switch from one brand to another and get a different nutritional result. This makes it possible for you to "healthify" a recipe by simply changing brands. It's pretty powerful that way.

You can add flavoring very easily to it. Take out what you are going to need and add your flavoring to taste or you can add the entire container to a mixer and add your flavoring that way as well. Be very careful using liquid flavorings because it will change the consistency.

But you can further assign your Favorites to various Categories, and you can list and name your own Categories as well. So, if I want to go to a particular restaurant I can list it under 'Food' and thus have a short-list only of restaurants.
