Kurt,
I decided to send them on the list. I will have to break them down to 5 or 6 messages but the list hasn't been too busy lately anyhow. I thought some others might like them.
NYC-Meal Master will import directly into MC so that should be no problem. There are some duplicate names but not exactly the same recipe so look before you delete any dups. Hope you enjoy them.
