Save the thread to 'Favourites'.Look at the top bar (File, Edit, View, Favourites, Tools, Help) and click Favourites.Then in the drop-down menu, click Add to Favourites.Whenever you want to view the thread, click on Favourites and it will be there in your list.That's a good way to save any website you want to refer to frequently too.
If you want to save anything you've copied and pasted,why not just save it straight to 'My Documents'!
Alternatively, you could paste a recipe into an email and just keep one email folder for Recipes.

I don't know why you would put it into an e-mail folder. I have several folders in my Word programme. But if you haven't got Word then do this:
1. Right click Desk Top 2 Scroll down and click New 3. Click Text Document
A new Text document will appear on your Desk Top
If you do not get to name at the bottom which will be highlighted don't worry. Just:
4. Right click the words New Text Document 5 Click on Rename and name it what you want then click OK.
Now, When you want to save a recipe just open your newly named text document at the same time as you have the recipe you want to copy open, copy the recipe and paste it into your Newly Created Text document.
Now for some advice.
Often, you will find you have hundreds of recipes you want to save. Word is still best for this but if you need to use Text Documents then try and have several documents named for specific things i.e. one for chocolate, one for fish, another for lemons, etc.
I've never used text documents before so I am not sure how big their capacity is. You'll have to discover that for yourself. Word is unlimited.
