Exactly. What you're looking for here is a collection of various cookbooks that you use as a starting point to create your own recipes, which you collect an store in whatever fashion pleases you.

Gran might have used index cards in a box, I use a 3-ring binder, you might use a Wordpress installation on a vanity domain. Doesn't matter.

The Betty Crocker is a great starting point for a wide variety of dishes. America's Test Kitchen released a book with 100 recipes that covers a wide variety of basics. I have a copy of "Real Stew" that is invaluable. All these go on a shelf as reference, to be transcribed into your own recipe book as you choose.

I use my memory (my repertoire is small, and my recipes are not sensitive to quantities).
