It's that time of year again!

You all know how much I love to cook and I'm always on the hunt for new yummy recipes to try. Several years ago I thought, wouldn't it be cool to have a recipe box/book with shared recipes from members from here and thus, Gingerbread's annual recipe exchange was born.

So are you ready to sign up!

Here's how it goes:

~ Everyone who signed up would be responsible for doing at least 2 recipes. You will have to send your 2 recipes to all the other members who participate. Just keep in mind if we have 10 participants that'll be 20 recipe cards you have to do. *But it'll be worth it when you get all your lovely cards!

~ Recipes must be done on recipe cards or recipe card sized paper. For example if you wanted to do yours on the computer that'd be ok as long as you cut them to card size, about 4x6 inch seems to be the standard.

~ I encourage people to embellish their recipe cards, maybe with stickers, pictures, bust out those glitter pens, we like pretty pony recipe cards! Do whatever you like to make your cards as unique and wonderful as you!

~ When you title your recipe put your member name on it. For example I could call mine; "Gingerbread's Italian Creme Cake", that way everyone would remember which cards came from who.



I made a pony themed binder for my cards. But a card box would be a cute idea too. It's not required but I think it'd be fun for everybody to post a picture of their pony recipe box/book when they're done. It'd be like having a useful scrapbook of all your pony friends.

Here's a pic of mine...

Sign-ups will be until Sun., May 13th

If you are interested in joining message me your address by the sign-up deadline. Requirements are that you must have been a member here for at least 2 months or have accumulated some positive feedback for me to consider. This is a good opportunity for some newer members who haven't accumulated any feedback yet to have a chance to earn some for future swaps and trades. If you have any questions about being eligible to participate feel free to message me. I may consider Arena or eBay feedback for newer members.


Also, please let me know if you have any particular allergies to certain foods. It's not required that all participant's recipes take these into account but it would be the nice pony-thing to do. Please at least include some of your recipes that all participants could use. I will note next to each person's name any allergies.

I look forward to seeing everyone's cards! The ones we exchanged in previous swaps were lovely and I can't wait to do this again.

Participants:

Gingerbread
Ology
Leave a Whisper

dang I got the wrong size cards. Do I need to go and get different ones?
 
I'm sure it's fine. They don't have to be a specific size just somewhat like recipe cards.
There index cards. My mom, my Nannies, almost all the people who write recipe use them. Also my recipe are rather simple as I don't really cook.
