The Reel I watched six times before I wrote it down

The Reel I watched six times before I wrote it down

There was a cinnamon roll Reel. Thirty seconds long. I watched it six times, saved it, and then never found it again in the pile of other saved Reels.

Sound familiar? Saving a Reel is not the same as saving a recipe. So now I do it properly.

1. Copy the Reel link

Tap Share, then Copy link.

2. Paste it into Joelynn's Kitchen

Open Add a Page and paste. The app reads what is said, what is shown and what is written in the caption, then writes it up as a recipe you can actually follow.

3. Save it and give it a home

Add a course and cuisine so it shows up when you browse your cookbook later, not lost in a feed.

4. Put it on your week

Drop it onto a day and its ingredients flow straight into your shopping list.

I finally made those cinnamon rolls. Twice.
