RECIPE SWAP -- Drinks, Soups, Stews or Sauce -- SIGN UPS until 10/15; due 11/1

[sarahwms]

OK...it seems like the majority wants a monthly Recipe Swap, so that's what we will go with. Our format will be 6x6 and embellished, but not too bulky. They will be due on the first of every month, but we will have separate sign ups every month for each different category. Everyone will mail them to me, include enough postage for return, and I will swap and mail them back out. Chris had a great idea that won't put the burden of creating too many on anyone! You create 6 of your particular recipe and I will send you 6 recipes in return. So you won't get all the recipes turned in, but you will get a variety! How's that sound?

The fifth and FINAL swap will be Drinks, Soups, Stews or Sauces and will be due 11/1.

...here are the categories:

Due July 1 -- Appetizer -- MAILED BACK
Due August 1 -- Side Dish -- MAILED BACK
Due September 1 -- Main Dish -- MAILED BACK
Due October 1 -- Dessert
Due November 1 -- Drinks or Soups, Stews and Sauces (that way we'll get a variety of both!)

that will mean everyone will have their last set of recipes BEFORE the end of November which will be in plenty of time for Christmas!!

THANKS everyone for updating this list! You are the BEST!

(I now have SIX PAGES of "new posts" to read....man, ya'll have been busy! Darn Chris, why did your Anniversary have to be when I didn't have internet????? From what I'm seeing, everyone had a BLAST! I guess I'll look forward to next year!)

[ChrisDurnan]

I don't know I kept crossing your fingers to see if you would show up. However, we have a favorites thread running so you can look through them all and post your favorite entries there. see what you can come up with.

I have to say i was exhausted after the anniversary! Tired Tired!

[scramper75]

I really need to get cracking on these. Hopefully I will have some time this weekend. I am all caught up on homework and am actually ahead in one class, so i will have some free time.

[paminsd]

I got mine done last night, will mail soon.
Pam in SD

[ChrisDurnan]

[sarahwms]

Elizabeth....I LOVE THEM!!! It is so hard when I see everyone's "LIVE"...I want to keep one of each! LOL!! Desserts will be going out this week...I'll get the pics posted of all of them either tonite or tomorrow!

[ChrisDurnan]

Sarah,
were you holding mine. I haven't gotten any back in a while. I just wanted to make sure my mailbox folks didn't need another "teacher finger" conversation. I am working on mine this weekend to and sending.

I think I have made enough extra pages to bind these into 4 books instead of just two for holiday gifts. woohoo!.

EnjoY!

I have your last two...for some reason the PO returned two of my packages....I used one of those self-do-it machines and the scale must have been off! So I'll just add the desserts to it and send it at one time! SORRY!!!

[ChrisDurnan]

No worries. :) Just wanted to make sure I didn't need to have a "conversation" with anyone.
Enjoy!
Chris

[scramper75]

Sarah, mine did not go out today as planned but will "hopefully" get them in the mail tomorrow. Lots going on here and didn't get the chance to get to the PO. Hold my desserts and send them with the ones I have. Do I owe you any for postage??

[cropangel]

I got my swap finished and in the mail today of course the day i decided to mail them it was pouring down rain but if i did not do it today not sure when i would do it so just rain through the puddles.
