Recipes
Last week I had a brilliant idea. Sadly, I have a brain like a sieve and forgot that idea. I do however, still have another idea that is still pretty good.
Several people have posted some nice tasty recipes on their blogs (or on OT). I was thinking it might be nice to have those recipes in one place, as I can never find them again. I have a pdf converter at work (Can convert any document to a pdf, which is nice to keep the formatting constant)
So here is my cunning plan
1) Everyone who wants to participate can email me some recipes. I think 4 sounds a nice number, but anywhere from 1-6 will do.
2) I will collect all the recipes together, format them and make a pdf file.
3) I will email back everyone who sent a recipe with the entire collection.
If I get amazing computer skills between now and then I'll see if I can set the pdf so it can be downloaded, but I'm not sure about that.
You can email a word document atttachment with the recipes. Include as much commentary as you like. Images are fine too. It would be neat if peeps included a little blurb about themselves too.
What do you think?
Recipes and Spam can be sent to Bobdechemist@yahoo.ca. I get a lot of spam to that address so if if you put "Blogland recipes" or something in the subject that would be useful.
What time limit do you think works?
one week?
two weeks?

Ooh! Sounds fun. I'll do it.
*trying to remember whether there are four things I can even cook*
I love the idea. I think two weeks is plenty of time. If peeps can't get them in by then, they aren't going to.
This is an elaborate plan to get my address isn't it?
yes, zombie.
It's all about you.
It always has been.
Now that she knows, can we skip this whole "recipe" thing and just wait for the address to be forwarded to us?
*runs off to spam Bob*
Hey, I'm just as hi tech as Bob - I can PDF things too!
It would be fun to see pictures of peoples' actual food, not something cut & pasted from a food website somewhere. Because those prepared dishes are sprayed with shellac and fish oil and stuff to make them look better on camera.
I may do this. Not committing yet though. It sounds too much like work.
Homework again? I was excited about this until I read that if you don't send receipes you don't get the link. *pouts*
I make absolutely nothing original, well except for my Italian meatball receipe from a previous Italian roommate.
Can I only submit one and still get the link? *lazy*
I would love to do it, but I have to remember to do it. Will you remind me please? Tomorrow would be the perfect day to remind me.
Yes, you can send just one recipe. It can even be a recipe that tells you to dial for a pizza.
Well it can't be that, as that was going to be my recipe, but you get the idea.
I don't mind if people don't send any recipes actually. Once the thing is made up, I'll email it to anyone who expresses an interest. It just seems it would be more fun to have your own recipe in there.
Wait we have to take pictures?
You are such an industrious one...good idea! I was thinking about the fact that I'd have to go sifting through the blogs & boards for recipes & scrunched up my nose at the thought.
I will gather mine together and try to take some pics along the way...*smooch*
I will only participate if Carey submits her recipe for poopoo cookies. I hear that they are uber divine.
OK, I'm in! What *is* the deadline?
On another note, I loved Adobe Acrobat. I miss it so much. :-(
