I Feel Like Food Network

We are in the midst of putting together a church cookbook. The plan is to sell the finished books and raise some needed funds for our ladies/mens group - The Frauen Verein/Fellowship Group. This will probably be one of the last things at the church to carry the name "Frauen Verein". This group has been in existance (in various forms) for almost as long as the church (over 165+years). The name means, simply, "Gathering of Women". The group voted to change their name last year and will soon be know as "The Fellowship Group". They did this because they have incorporated the husbands of the women into the group - and the name didn't fit anymore.



Enough of that. Recipes were sought beginning in January of this year - they started coming in VERY slowly - they have picked up speed slightly - and thanks to MANY members and former members - it looks like we'll have a GREAT book. We are also reprinting recipes from a few earlier church cookbooks - great recipes that only a few of us have and some from members that have passed away.



Now comes the "Food Network" part. All these recipes coming in - and my looking up different recipes that "I've always wanted"- I am beginning to feel like a "test kitchen". Not complaining - ILOVE IT!



My daughter, Caitlyn has many of the recipes entered on her computer and we still have a stack to enter.



Titles are being suggested by our members, and will be voted on on Sunday, September 13 at our coffee hour after church.



When prices are decided upon - I'll make a note on the blog for anyone who would like to place an order to contact me.



That's all for now,



Cheryl
