OK, girls, it's that time again!! Same "rules" as the Chocolate Recipe Swap. We'll have space for 15 again. One or two recipes/pages each - last time we had 21 recipes from 14 participants, and the books were quite full, so don't feel obligated to do two!!  This time, we're gonna be quick and dirty!!

Yep, yep, Gail, you were right to take me seriously. I am determined to redeem myself for my most recent performance. I already have a list of recipe options (just need to coordinate with Mom and Sis) and some vague notions of designs.
I just talked to Mom and she would like to be signed up as well. She is out running around the countryside today so I'm not sure when she will get to check in on the MB.
I think Sister must be stuck in the studio today because I haven't been able to catch her yet. She has had her salad page designed since before I finished my chocolate pages. So unless something has come unraveled in the last few days I know she is planning to participate as well.
Thanks for running another swap for us!!

So happy to see my name there already!  And just for the record...the covers are done! (They just haven't been mailed yet, because I'd like to send my 2 recipes at the same time). |

All I've done so far is chosen my recipe. Oh, and I did buy some PP that I thought would be cute!  Can't wait to get scrapping!! Thanks, girls for joining in!  Gail |

Thanks, Gail! I need to get to cutting out shapes! :-) I have the layout planned and paper selected, but I need to focus on some DIY embellishments. And I need to dust off my silhouette. Can't wait to see the chocolate books! |

Layout is in mind but I am sure it will change several times before its finished.
I will start working on it this weekend, maybe LOL

Michelle, I use my Silhouette for these swaps, too. It's so helpful when you need to make multiple copies of the same thing. And I love the ability to size things to fit.  Cindy, I'm hoping to get started this weekend, too. I don't have a layout in mind, yet. I'll probably just print up my recipe and play around a bit with some designs. Karen, I think the planning is the most fun part!! Frankly, the excitement starts to fade as I'm gluing the embellishments to the 12th copy of my page!!  Have fun, girls!! Gail |

I am going to gracefully bow out of this one - I'm sad, but I'm trying to be realistic about my time. My boss keeps saying something about CHA, so I guess I need to keep my schedule a little clear!! HHAHAHAHA I know you'll have fun ladies!!!!!!! Can't wait for the chocolately goodness book to arrive - HEAVEN in a cookbook - can't wait! |

We'll miss you, Suz, but I know you have a lot on your plate right now (pun intended)! ;D After this one we'll take a Holiday break. I'm hoping you can join us for the one after that? Please?? Gail |

Well Darn it; Susan! I understand your super busy with CHA and all, but we can still miss having you join the fun. Wait until you get the Chocolate Recipe Book!; we rocked (like everyone is saying!!!! Gail said perfectly it will KNOCKED YOUR MIS-MATCHED SOCKS OFF! (wait did she say "Mis-Matched"  )  I love it!!! I love mis-matched socks!!!!!! I would wear them everyday if I could, along with my RED KEDS, or my Navy Blue ones or white ones or black ones. Turning 59 doesn't mean I can't wear Mis-matched socks, Keds and wear my hair short (pixie style)!!!!!!!! Susan we will MISS YOU!!! But we will look forward to all the new ideas and goodies you find at CHA!!!! Cat |

Okay, ladies! As of now, there are 6 spots left, and I just mailed sets of covers to Gail for all 15 entries. As mentioned on another thread, you don't have to be a brilliant cook...use a recipe from a friend/relative/etc. And it doesn't have to be a recipe with 90 gazillion ingredients...one of my favorite, and oft-used recipe uses only 4 ingredients, and my family loves it. 95% of the fun is scrapbooking the page! Go sign up NOW!!!!! |

Ok, sign me up. I've got a couple of favorite salads.
Not sure I saw this, but is this a lettuce salad or a pasta salad.
I have two that I like so just not sure which direction I need to head in...

Funmollie, I'm guessing that it can be either (or both). I plan to send in a recipe for a pasta crab salad.

Mollie, you are in!! So glad you're joining us!! As far as I'm concerned, if the recipe name says "salad", it qualifies - jello, potato, pasta, fruit, green, etc. It's fine with me, and I'm pretty sure everyone else!! Even if it doesn't say "salad" it'll be OK. We don't have a lot of "rules", other than page size, so everything fits together! One of my recipes is going to be Tabouli - a middle eastern salad with cracked wheat, parsley, and veggies. Not a traditional salad, by a long shot! Have a great weekend!! Gail P.S. Pam, that Pasta & Crab salad sounds wonderful!! |

Just to let the salad-makers know...my salads are "Frog-Eye" (sounds gross, but it really isn't!) and a chicken-blueberry salad (and there will never be enough chicken salad recipes!)

okay y'all are killing me - reading about the salads you are including is just torturing me. SO I am in!!!! I have a broccoli salad that I just absolutely LOVE to pieces and it's oh-so-easy. So Gail - sign me up! And and and, I have an idea that might actually turn into a real scrapped page. Y'all know that I usually do digital pages because I can get it done fast {since I usually wait until the last possible second to do the pages!!}. But but but, I might be inspired! OKAY I AM IN!!!! One page, one recipe, yes yes yes! |

Oh, Susan, you are so funny!!! I'm thrilled to see you have no will power when it comes to the recipe swaps!!  Diane, hmm, yes, love those tech issues! But at least I know what my first salad is going to be now and the layout is in the finalish design stages. I hope to go into full production mode this weekend. I'd like to do a second recipe if I can get done pretty quick. I WILL NOT BE LATE THIS TIME!! |
