I've been meaning to do that FOREVER. I have 2 separate expanding files - one for my T&T and one for "gotta try". I couldn't lift the second one anymore - the clasps gave out long ago and was being held together with a bungee cord... barely. I got brave and just began throwing out anything I would never really try... mostly because my family wouldn't like it, or I'd have to have a very specialy, particular reason to use it. Once I started, it got easier and easier. DH kept taking the trash can out for me. After that (3 days), I spent a full day going thru my T&T and weeding it out of recipes I had really only made once and wrote "ok" on it, or ones we really had no more taste for. Now both files are light as a feather and I can grab any one and be assured it's a winner.
Of course.... I haven't printed off the MANY recipes from this board that are in my "to print" files... ahhh... I can see another couple of days work ahead of me.
