Back in the day, people would trade recipe cards as a way to share favorite meals and desserts. Nowadays, people more often turn to the Internet or Pinterest to find their recipes. While that's fun too, it is really awesome to get a handwritten recipe from a friend or family member. A favorite recipe is a great gift, so check out these recipe cards so you have a fun way to present them.
