Family gatherings for special occasions are often marked by food. These times can be stressful with so many things to do, but they are also an ideal time to begin a family cookbook project. These tips from the Family Cookbook Project will make your personalized family cookbook a success.
* Invite everyone to participate. Invite everyone, not just the family cooks. Everybody has at least one recipe they can contribute to this cookbook. You can stay in touch with contributors by using e-mail. To encourage contributors to continue adding their best recipes, let them see the submissions of others.
* Establish an editor. The editor is responsible to get things started and keep them moving. The editor is responsible for the definition of the project, including who to invite and what recipes to include.
* Set a deadline. You can set a deadline for all recipes to be submitted one or two months ahead of time. People work better when they know what the deadline is. Visit this page to learn more about how your family can create a family cookbook. www.FamilyCB.com.
