This BLOG

On the 4th of July our family went to Provo to see the Parade and fireworks, while we were there Trina Luke suggested that we have a family recipe exchange. She said she was always looking for something new to make and it would be a fun way to keep in touch. We discussed it (with the help of Nedra and Ava) and decided to give it a try.

We thought it would be easiest to assign each of the original brothers and sisters a month in which to post some recipes and then rotate through. To ensure that there is lots of good food for everyone, we've assigned the family of each of the original brothers and sisters a month in which we ask that they make a special effort to share a yummy treat with us.

Here is the schedule. (there is not order to it so I hope that is ok)
August: Nedra
September: Ava
October: Marla
November: Brent
December: Everyone Post your favorite Holiday recipes
January: Clarice
February: Neil
March: DeAnn
April: Keith
May: Byron
June: Alice
July: Everyone Post your favorite Summer Recipes

Please include labels when you post a recipe to help us all find what we're looking for. Here are some suggestions: main, vegetable, meat, side, dessert, breakfast, strawberries.

We would suggest that when you post your recipe you tell us a little about what is going on in your family. For example when posting Cinnamon Cake you could say "this is our top secrete cake recipe we always take to potlucks and church parties." We think this will be a fun way to hear from each other a little more ofter and hope you will give it a try. If you would like this blog can e-mail you whenever there is a new post. Please let up know what you think.
