Dear Washington and Lee University Community:
Won’t you help us, please? We have decided to publish a second W&L community cookbook filled with the best recipes from the best cooks in our community – and we need your favorite recipes! The best news of all? All of the profits from the sale of the cookbooks will go to the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life event in May. We have a team in the event and am raising money to benefit this charity. We are anticipating completion of this cookbook in 2 years so we can collect more recipes. Please do not submit the same recipes as you did for the last cookbook. Our goal is to have 750 recipes in the new edition.
We would like you to submit three or four of your favorite recipes so you can be represented in our memorable collection. Please read the instructions below and neatly print or type one recipe per sheet. Your recipe should fit into one of the following categories:
Appetizers & Beverages; Soups, Salads & Vegetables; Main Dishes & Casseroles; Meat, Poultry & Seafood, Breads & Rolls; Pies, Pastry & Desserts
Cakes; Cookies & Candy; and This & That
Instructions:
L Type or Print Clearly in Ink, Not Pencil, and Place Only One Recipe Per Form.
L If more room is needed, attach another sheet of the same size and staple together.
L Keep your directions in paragraph form - not in steps.
L Spell out names of ingredients in the directions, ie., "Combine flour and sugar", DO NOT use statements like, "Combine first three ingredients."
L Spell your name the way you want it listed with your recipe, and be consistent with the spelling of your name on each recipe you contribute.
Each recipe selected will show the name of the recipe contributor and be beautifully bound in an attractive cookbook sure to be treasured for years.
Each cookbook will contain helpful cooking hints, basic kitchen information, illustrated category dividers, table of contents, index and special pages of interest to our community. The cookbook will be fully typeset in easy-to-read print on large 5 ˝" x 8 ˝" size pages.
Please call Linda Agnor at ext. 8493 if you have any questions or comments. Thank you so much for participating in our fund raising efforts.
