Homemade – The Handmade Help Recipe Book

February 14, 2009


my lemon tart

Do you love to cook, like I do? How about if you had not one single recipe to access. I’m sure you could whip up a few nice things – but it might be a bit tricky to remember how many eggs go into that special cake, or whether that dish had ginger in it or not. Spare a thought for those that lost a myriad of important and precious things last weekend – including all their recipes. I’m sure it’s the last thing they are thinking of now – but someday it will matter – and maybe we can make it a teeeeensy bit less crappy for those people down the track.

We are compiling a recipe book to print and distribute to those affected by the weekend’s tragedy. We REALLY need you to send us your recipes! Any recipes would be just perfect, but we ESPECIALLY need the following:

Main Meals – for Lunch and Dinner
Breakfast Recipes
Snacks and Appetisers
Breads and Yeast Cookery
Salads
Preserves and Jams
International Recipes
BBQ Fare
Kid Friendly Dishes
Drinks (alcoholic and not!)
Vegetarian and Vegan Recipes

We would really love any OLD FAMILY RECIPES that you might have – because these lovely people have probably lost theirs. PLEASE share those too. Send as many as you like. We can handle it! The full details of how to submit are over here.

Please cut and paste the link for this post and email it to all your email contacts – or post it to facebook or whatever social networking sites you use. This is VERY IMPORTANT!!!! We need the recipes of cooks, crafters, nannas, bloggers, truck drivers, shop keepers, policemen, celebrities… everyone!!!!

The recipe book will also be available to everyone to download online – for a small fee. All funds raised will go to The Red Cross.

    I will ask my boyfriend. He is the one with all the cooking mojo in my house.

    I’ve just sent your request to EVERYONE in my address book.
    Yay for cooking! Yay for sharing the love!

    Yay, I just sent off my Nana’s recipes for her sweet and plain anzac biscuits. They’re the best and everyone should eat them 😀
