[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is so strange. My mom, MIL and I talk about recipes we enjoy and share them. If I made something good, why wouldn’t I share my recipe or where I got a special ingredient?

It’s not like they are going to screw me out of a blue ribbon at the county fair. It’s a recipe. You probably all read the same grocery store checkout magazines and watch the same HGTV and Food channel shows. [/quote]

Generally, I agree with you...except... made the mistake of sharing with MIL after turning down my BIL's wife's request for my family recipe for her "family cookbook". Stupid twat was aware that her mother's entire plan was to sell it on amazon and through her local bookstore and church. Of course nobody was given credit for their recipes or given anything, much less a part of the sales. Then she asked for more recipes for v.2. NOPE.

I only found out afterwards that apparently her mother was specifically targeting my recipes because she (and our MIL) were constantly raving about them. Everyone else I meet I just give the link to my online recipe box and couldn't care less because they aren't trying to profit off them and are just sharing joy with their friends and family.
