In the Scrapyland Divas' Project Swap section of the board.  Sign Up now ladies, before the spots are all gone!! If you've participated before, you know how much fun it is to share recipes and scrapping skills with 14 other Divas, and to get a great recipe album in the bargain!  If you haven't participated - what are you waiting for???  All you need to do is pick your favorite salad recipe, scrap it on an 8x8 page, then replicate it so there's one for each participant (currently we're looking at 15 max), and mail them to me by Nov 16th. I'll collate the recipes and bind them into books, then mail one book to each of you. The book is a great recipe book (trust me - scrappers are awesome cooks!!), and a beautiful work of scrap art as well. Are you in?? If so, post in the Signup thread, and I'll put you on the list. If you have questions, post them here or in the Sign up thread, or PM me. You will have a blast - I guarantee!!  Gail |

Just over half of the spots for this swap are already gone!!  If you are thinking about participating, now's the time to sign up!  We'll be finished before the Holiday crunch, and you'll have a book of great new recipes to use to enliven the festivities. Many of our participants have been with the swap since we first started over a year ago. They've been having so much fun, they can't stop!!  If you've never done a swap before, we'd love to have you join us! If you're not sure how it works, post or PM me, and I'll be happy to answer any questions you have. Come join the fun!!  Gail |

I agree with Cindy; the recipe swaps are soooo much fun. I always look forward to these swaps.
Gail, is a super sweet lady to hold these swaps and put all of our books together. Diane/casunflower is the sweetie who makes our covers. They do an AMAZING JOB!!!!
All of the ladies who have participated in these swaps do fantastic jobs on their pages. I'm always excited about these swaps and can hardly wait to see every bodies' beautiful work. Oh yes, getting all of the fantastic recipes is a HUGE PLUS. MAN CAN THESE LADIES COOK!
Come on ladies join our fun!!!
Hugs
Cat
(Oh by the way some of us are just beginners in scrap-booking so don't let that hold you back)

...Our AZ mail is SO DANG SLOW! ... I can't believe that my book made it all the way to my doorstep before yours, Susan!  Usually I'm one of the last to have that lovely package delivered to my mailbox! And my area is notorious for some of the worst mail service in the area! |

Thanks, Susan!! So glad you're enjoying the book. The talent of the women on this board is off the charts!! And they just keep getting better! Chocolate for breakfast is always acceptable - I asked Miss Manners! Gail |

You do not have to be a "cook" to join the swap!! For me it is more about the scrapbooking!!! I love doing it and seeing what everyone else does. And the fabulous recipes are just a bonus You should join us!! Cindy |

YG, I agree with Cindy. I've used several recipes that have been handed down to me from my Granny & Grandma. They are really good recipes so I have made them for my family. Being good cook isn't a requirement....having fun & sharing is our goal. So dig around for a recipe you like and join in the fun. (if digging around your kitchen fails; ask a friend or relative if you can scrap one of their recipes you like) Cat |

I agree with Cindy, too! If it weren't for the fact that DH is a terrific cook, and I (cough,cough) "borrow" most of his recipes for the swap, I would have a hard time coming up with tasty treats! |

I'll add my two cents here, too, Kathy! Join us!! You can use a recipe from Pinterest if you want - it's mostly about the scrapping!! I guarantee you'll have a total blast, and wind up with a great keepsake in the bargain! Come on, join us!! Join us!!  Gail |
