Posting recipes
As you may have noticed, I don’t post many of the recipes that I discuss, mainly because I was concerned about copyright violation… turns out, I might not need to worry about it. Individual recipes cannot be copyrighted (because the list of ingredients how to prepare them are considered “ideas” which can’t be copyrighted), but a collection of them can. So, while reprinting a substantial portion of a cookbook isn’t acceptible, recipes can be. Taking this into consideration, I will likely start reprinting the recipes that I try here on the blog so I can share them with you all.
On an unrelated note: those of you that have expressed interest in the “one day a week” group I mentioned last week will be hearing from me within the next couple of days.
I’m glad you looked into that. I have never been sure if it’s ok to post recipes or not. Usually, I make slight changes, or write them up in the context of a little story…it’s good to know that I’m not going to get in trouble for it.
