Hello everyone! ย My name is Kim and I recently started Tales and Tips from a Real-Life Housewife where I share household tips-like how to clean your shower head and when the best time to buy linens is. ย I also write about my adventures as a new mom. ย I love being a stay at home mom and enjoy dressing my cute baby girl up. ย I invite you to stop by on Wednesdays for my Trendy Tots Linky Party!

A big thanks to Cindy here at Skip to My Lou for having me! ย I have a great organizing project for you as we head into 2012 : The Take-Out Menu Binder.

This is simply a binder for the menus of all the local eateries and restaurants, along with coupons and restaurant info. ย What a great resource for those nights you don’t feel like cooking, huh! ย All you need is a 1/2″ binder, a couple of page dividers, and a few sheet protectors – oh, and those menus! ย Don’t worry if you don’t have any menus yet, just collect them as you go out.

So let’s get started! ย As you can see above I made a cover page for the front of the binder. ย Open it up and behind the first tab I have Restaurant Info.

 

 

The first page is for jotting down your favorite restaurants and their phone numbers. ย This will save you time as you won’t have to look them up. ย Then there are order forms. ย Print as many of these as you would like! The last page is for ratings. ย Come back to this one after you try something new and record whether or not you enjoyed it. ย This is especially useful if you have company and want to recommend something. ย A quick look at this and you can tell them your favorites as well as what not to order!

Behind the second tab are the menus. ย Like I mentioned before, collect them as you dine out. ย Or check online, some restaurants such as Chili’s and Wingers have printable menus. ย I’ve put them in sheet protectors to ensure a long life.

Lastly, I’ve included a section for coupons. ย You know, the kind that come in the mail-2 Six Dollar Burgers for $6.00 or a Free Beef ‘N Chedder with the Purchase of 1! ย I love me a good deal! ย These are alsoย snuglyย placed inside a sheet protector.

And that’s all there is to organizing a Take-Out Menu! ย I hope you’ll go download the restaurant info and start your own Menu Organizer!!
