club etiquette.

  1. each month one lass will determine the month's recipe selection and post it on the first day of the month.
  2. to maintain peak levels of amusement, the chosen recipe should be untested but intriguing (explanations describing the selection process are welcome).
  3. when making a recipe selection, keep in mind that each kitchen is uniquely equipped and it is best to avoid recipes that require specialized machinery (stand mixer, ice cream maker, food processor, etcetera).
  4. all lasses or their fellows or a combination thereof should cook and consume the recipe by the fifteenth day of the month.
  5. the remainder of the month will be available for discussion and the hope is that we shall have fabulous feasts followed by delightful discourse.

a few extra notes:
  1. put the name of the recipe as the title of the post - this will make it easier to find in the future.
  2. please be sure to give credit wherever credit is due - feel free to provide links if the recipe is available online.
  3. have a recipe you wanna share just because? share away!! other recipes are always welcome - but only one recipe (or meal) will be "the chosen" for the month.

welcome.

welcome welcome to our club dedicated to selecting, cooking, eating, and discussing new recipes. we are going to have a monthly "dinner date." one of us will pick a recipe that we've never before tried and all of us will make it. then we can talk about it. just like a book club, except we'll be a-cookin! here's the tidbits...

the first day of the month the recipe-selector for that month will post a new recipe. then we will all cook it. and then we can chat about it. this plan could be a flop or it could be fabulous. one thing we know is that it will be a feast! so get your cooking hats ready, because on february 1st your first recipe will be awaiting.

are you ready? get set!! cook!
