PSALA Cookbook

The Community Service Committee will be preparing a cookbook throughout the year to be ready in time to be sold at the 2011 Holiday Social. The proceeds will benefit Rescue Mission (http://www.rescue-mission.org/). This will not be your usual cookbook in that we are attempting to have more unusual categories than you generally see in cookbooks.

We have provided the categories for each month month so you can go ahead and send your recipes for upcoming months. We have developed a template to use to enter your recipes. Although many hands make light work, a little care at the front end will make all the difference in keeping this project manageable. We would also like to encourage anyone who would like to work on a discreet project without committing to being on an official committee to help with this one. We will need typists, proofreaders, etc. We may also be soliciting your original artwork as the cookbook develops. Please use the template below to send your recipes to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
