No, Trademe Cooks closed several months ago but the recipes are still available from http://www.e-ware.co.nz/downloads.htm - scroll to the bottom of the page on that link where you will find info' there on how to download the files.:-))

yep. You may get a whole pile in your mail box. I don't post anything in my blogs that I personally have not made. They are more for myself and family members, although others can see them, my counter tells me so.

Well every time someone mentions the site to download trade me cooks old site from. some one immediately chimes in stating its on Facebook run by winnie . Obviously my link is no longer required and I did say I would leave it there for a year to help out and its been a long time over that. I have taken it off the site so it can now be obtained exclusively from Facebook as required. I hope the link has been of benefit for those that wanted it.

Yes. It would be very pleasant if you went over to sheepy's site and left us to get on with it.

I set up the facebook group because the trademe rules prohibit people from posting personal contact details here . which is fine BUT . throughout the year some good folks have had too much veges or fruit and have offered to give them away to other cooks but had no way of getting in touch. Also cyber-friendships formed here have spilled over into real life. Hence the facebook group was born. It is simply a way to be in contact with each other without breaking TM rules. You are welcome to share recipes there, list veges/books/etc you want to give away . share stories, photos . you get the picture :) There is a link to the trademecooks recipe download. Also a link to fisher's recipe site which is an excellent collection of recipes & one I still use & refer others too. Sheepy - you are most welcome to join the FB group & put a link to your blog there too.

leave you to get on with ruining the recipe section for everyone else, somehow, I dont think so

Then you should at least be prepared to be more pleasant and less fractious with those who want to talk about something other than your daily doings in Masterton and your interminable weather reports.
In this forum it wants to control the tone, the content and push her wares. All her friends will come on and use bullying tactics to try and remove others it doesn't like because of their opinions. I hope she doesn't do that to your site sheepey.

don't see how she can shut down a blog if that is what she wants to do

don't see why we can't have more than one site for recipes if people are interested in cooking They will be different and have different recipes etc
