Description:

For this swap you will make a book out of cardboard (approximately 4 1/2 x 6) you will then cover the book with whatever media you wish, It can be paper, fabric, mixed media. Inside will be 6 pages. The first page will be an introduction page. You will describe your heritage and what inspired your family recipes.Next two pages will be 2 family recipes. These recipes are OLD FAMILY FAVORITES. They can be recipes that your family makes all the time, for special occasions, or for Holidays. Dont just find something out of Martha Stewarts magazine. They are OLD FAMILY FAVORITES, TRIED AND TRUE, YEAR AFTER YEAR...

The next two pages are your favorite recipes from a restaurant. If needed you can obtain this from COPYKAT.COM. They have hundreds of copycat recipes from Applebees, Ruby Tuesdays, etc.

Finally the last page Your swap name (for rating), your name, your email and whatever you wish to add...

Be creative and make this something that your partner will be proud to display on their swap bot shelf! Be clear about your recipe directions especially if you make them often and can do it with a blindfold (like me!)

ABOUT FLAKERS: Please please dont sign up for this swap if you don't plan on doing it. I know I am serious about anything that leaves my studio, I put alot of time putting these together and I dont want any participants to be disappointed and get flaked on. I have 0 tolerance and will not let you back into any swap I host if this happens.

Q- Do you mean 4"x6"? 6"x2" would be quite hard to write a recipe on, yes?

OliveAndMadi 05/18/2010 #

Hey Guys the book is 4 1/2 x 6 and the link is www.copykat.com I finished mine already and one of the recipes has a front and back page. another is long so I put a pocket on the pafe and typed the recipe out and sklipped it in. So you can be as creative as you like as long as it is pretty enough to display on your swap shelf and it has two of your tried and true family recipes and two copykat recipes from your favorite restaurant!! Have fun
