Absolutely. I think it's a great idea. About a month ago I attended a
"food and wine" event in Sonoma County. It was a "potluck". The
requirement was that you brought a printed copy of the recipe for what
you brought. They charged $10 for the tasting which was worth it for
the free wine alone. But, then they took all the printed copies of
recipes and copied them and put them into a folder and sent it to all
the particpants. It was lovely. I got some really great recipes and
all the people who loved my smoked chicken wild rice salad were very
happy to get my recipe. If you're interested in the recipe for this
great dish, let me know and I'll send it to you.

A RCTQ recipe booklet will be one more way we can come together as a
quilting community.

If you decide to take it on, let me know and I'll be glad to help.

When we write up our recipes please, lets remember that all items are not
named the same in all countrys, brands are not available in all areas.
This
is going to be fun! Let the cooking begin!

Oooh yes - how big is the US cup compared to the Oz cup? That might be
why
my brownies turned out sloppy the other day.

Great Idea Kate! I hate doing stuff in cups. As well as the fact
that
Oz
cups are different to US cups - I have some Oz cookbooks!

Oh, yes! Sounds like fun! Can we have recipes in weights as well
as
US
cups?

I'll join in even though I won't have many to share. I know that
at least one person here has tried out a couple of mine.

I am a really awful cook; but I could scrape the back of my memory bank
and produce a couple of nice things? It is a great idea, especially if
we can make the quantities 'international'.

I especially like this idea, Melissa! New recipes are great, but new ones I
can't use aren't as fun. :-)

I would be interested if we had to input two recipes. One healthy and
one not healthy. Since I have been changing my eating habits over the
last year plus, my daily eating is much much healthier and all my old
cookbooks are dusty. Healthy tried and true recipes really appeal to
me. But I also cook for special occasions like holidays where health
consciousness is tabled for a day or so. Then those not so healthy
recipes could be used.

That said my not healthy recipe is the moistess richess carrot cake
you've ever had. Healthy I'd have to work on picking one.

I don't know the conversion from US to
Oz (Australian?) cups, but I suppose
I could put the units in metric as well as AV.

Non-metric cups are half a local pint.

Try the google converter. See what happens when you search for:
2 teaspoons
2 uk pints
500 ml in ounces

Click on 'More about calculator'.

1 cup (250 ml, OZ) @ 8.5 oz (1 cup = 8 oz, US)
or
1 cup (US) @ 236 ml
