Greetings! I am writing a cookbook for my step kiddos, I've been in their lives since they were 4 and 6. They are now 14 and 16, and about 5 years ago I asked them if they wanted a cookbook of their favorite things.
Greetings! I am writing a cookbook for my step kiddos, I've been in their lives since they were 4 and 6. They are now 14 and 16, and about 5 years ago I asked them if they wanted a cookbook of their favorite things. So I started writing one. I've been working on it on and off, but now I'm working on it in earnest as I want to have a finished product for the eldest's move-in day for college in a couple of years. Right now, the book includes pantry staples, cooking and food safety, cooking terminology, examples of techniques and of course, their favorite recipes. I've also included holiday recipes (how to make a turkey, ham, etc), pictures of their grandmothers recipe cards and translated them with her help, and on each recipe a little anecdote about each kiddo. So I ask you, is there anything I'm leaving out? Have you received something similar and thought, "I wish it had 'this'" in it? If so, please tell me what I'm missing! I want it to be "complete" for them with room to add their own recipes as they get older and move about the world. Thanks in advance for any advice! submitted by /u/educatedvegetable [link] [comments]
