recipe finders

I don’t do it very often, about once a year really. It used to be I would host a home party, you know, Mary Kaye, Pampered Chef, Southern Living at Home. This year, however, I took a different approach. As happens so often to me, food was the excuse for the togetherness.

I invited some new friends over for a night of treats and recipe swapping. The coffee table was mounded with cookbooks. We had two scanner/printer/copiers plugged in and we talked about how we get our families together for meals, survive the holidays, savor secret pleasures and seek out easier, faster ways to get the same great results our mothers and grandmothers got. Everybody left with a fistful of new recipes to try … and I snuck away with a few new links. They will be added to the fun food finds links in the sidebar. Hope they help you out when you’re in a pinch. And if you’re interested in this cute cake, click on the picture for the Parents Magazine recipe. Happy weekend!
