Our house didn't even have a pantry, we had to buy one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-cookbooks#post-62710 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 13:04:56 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 62710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a walk in pantry so my cookbooks are on a shelf in there. I don't think that helps you though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-cookbooks#post-62704 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 13:03:20 +0000 Andrea 62704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: i can read it off my phone. </p> <p>or i also have an iPad so i put that on a stand and that works great. i agree about bringing your computer in, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-cookbooks#post-62698 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 13:00:06 +0000 cyneswith 62698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No room in your dining room or living room either? If there's no room for more storage, and no way to partition the cabinet the books are already in, you're kind of stuck. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-cookbooks#post-62696 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 12:58:18 +0000 heffalump 62696@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: How do you read the recipe when you're cooking? Whenever I have internet recipes I bring the computer over to the kitchen and I'm always scared I'll spill. I'm too lazy to print it out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-cookbooks#post-62694 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 12:57:20 +0000 heffalump 62694@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cyneswith: I would love that but we don't have the room for it. Our kitchen is pretty tiny. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-cookbooks#post-62691 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 12:54:52 +0000 Andrea 62691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: I love thumbing through them but I find myself going digital nowadays. I love using Zip List and I can access all the recipes from my iPhone when I am at the grocery store so I can figure out what I need if I forget to do it before I leave the house! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-cookbooks#post-62663 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 12:39:49 +0000 cyneswith 62663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Could you install some raised shelves? Book shelves don't have to go on the floor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-cookbooks#post-62639 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 12:07:36 +0000 heffalump 62639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cyneswith: That's nice, but unfortunately our kitchen isn't big enough for that. We have a corner hutch in our dining room but it's already full :(</p> <p>@Rubies: We also have bookshelves in our guestroom/office, but I'm planning on using that for baby #2's room so I don't want to put more crap in there just to have to find a new place for it later. </p> <p>@Andrea: I love cookbooks! I get some stuff from the internet but couldn't get rid of my cookbooks.</p> <p>@yoursilverlining: We have room for something in my kitchen. Nothing huge though. I just have to find something I like I guess. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-cookbooks#post-62603 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 11:12:51 +0000 yoursilverlining 62603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have built-in bookcases/hutch in our dining room where we keep cookbooks.</p> <p>Do you have room for a bookcase with glass front doors, or hutch in your kitchen or dining room? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-cookbooks#post-62596 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 11:04:51 +0000 Andrea 62596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine are in a bookcase in our living room. I find that I barely use them since I get all my recipes from the internet nowadays. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-cookbooks#post-62592 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 11:00:43 +0000 Rubies 62592@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our cookbooks are in our bookcase in our office. If we need a recipe, we just go get the cook and bring it into the kitchen. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-cookbooks#post-62589 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 10:58:35 +0000 cyneswith 62589@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A hutch might work.

Right now they're in our kitchen cabbinet on the bottom, and it's such a deep shelf so there's no good way to stack them. If I want a cookbook, I have to sit on the floor and dig through them. We're thinking of buying something to make it easier for me, but we have to have something that has closed doors on it because our dog likes to eat things when we leave him alone in the house, so the traditional bookshelf won't work. Any ideas? </p>
