Recipe Club News for May

Don't forget that the Recipe Club meeting date will be changed for May because of the Derby. We will be meeting the second Saturday which will be May 9th. Please call or email the shop (or me) to register if you haven't already.

This month we will be using a new technique in the book -- distressing. If you have a brown ink pad, you can bring it. We will have distressing ink available at the store. I prefer the distress ink for the transparency, but either will work. This is a great technique for your pages to add a little bit of definition. In addition to your regular kit, please bring an X-Acto knife or utility blade if you have one.

This month is Main Course, divided into beef, pork, poultry, and fish. The beef and pork recipes have been completed, but in an effort to include recipes from everyone in the club, I am calling for you to send me your recipes for poultry and/or fish. You can drop the by the shop or email them to me at SRoss3456@aol.com. If you happen to have a picture, please include that as well. A panel of judges (guess who that will be!) will choose the recipe/recipes to be included this month. Also, we have added a special category to the book for the month of June -- GRILLING! It would be great if you would bring a grill recipe to the class so that we can get a jump on the busy month. The date for June may have to be changed to second Saturday: we are checking right now for conflicts with graduation, etc. Check back here for updates.

Hope to see you this weekend at clipboards and don't forget to get me some recipes!
