Kim, can we please add a General Cooking Discussion/Questions subforum? There's not really a good place to put those questions down under Food. I want to copy over a couple of the reference type threads from FFF.

I'm kinda sad that it's all going away.  It's like a journel of my life.

I copied over my posts from the recipe section. Glad to have saved those. I am now going to go through and review the other forum sections to see if there is anything in particular I want to save. Man, there was a lot of fantastic information shared there over the decades. sighs... makes me sad. Though I am thankful Kim is offering this option for us to continue.

I hope everyone take a peek to see what they might want to copy and paste before it is gone and inaccessible!

I will take a look at it, Marie. I had modeled these of FFF, but we can consolidate boards or rearrange them, not a problem.

Welcome, LilySue! So glad to have a Brit among us!

Two of my five boys are also on the autism spectrum. Connor is grown now, Jamie is school-aged with developmental delays and sensory issues. I've been homeschooling both of my school-aged kids since 2020. Best decision I ever made. Jamie is learning at his own pace and doing very well.

Hi, I joined here not long after you all moved over from another group, but goodness knows when that was or what the other group was called  :) 
I'm a Brit living in the East of the UK, and when all the other Brits slowly left F3 I hung around because I really liked you all, and because my life circumstances forced me to get more and more frugal.
Over the years we found out that all three of our sons are on the autistic spectrum, with Hamish our beloved youngest also having learning difficulties(and other health problems) and he will probably live with us for a very long time.  Just before the pandemic our oldest son also came back to live with us and we form a slightly strange but very happy family unit.

Hey Kim, just throwing this out there to consider...

Is it really necessary to have a baking section versus just putting the baking recipes in the recipes section? Perhaps add a General Cooking subforum for all the other stuff cooking related we might talk about? What do you think? Just seems a little redundant to me and if I were looking for recipes later, I couldn't be sure if it ended up in baking or recipes.

Thanks.  It's always a struggle getting use to a new format.

Really.  If they could take all that energy and use it to help end world hunger or something else useful, that would be great.
