Description:

I love cooking in the fall and taking advantage of the harvest. For this swap you will have one partner and you will pick 5 different hints below and send out 5 different recipes which correspond to those hints.

For example, the five could be Cranberry relish, Pecan pie, Sweet Potato casserole, Halloween punch and Apple cobbler.

The recipes should be written or printed on 3 x 5 cards, 4 x 6 cards or full sheets of paper. Also, please include the name of the swap, your swapping name and the five hints you chose and the corresponding recipe. Try to decorate the recipes with a Fall theme, it is not essential but makes it more fun. The hints are:

  • something cranberry
  • something pumpkin
  • something orange
  • something turkey
  • something sweet potato
  • something Halloween
  • something apple
  • something corn
  • something pecan
  • something Oktoberfest

Rules are that you have to have no unexplained or recent ones, and have your profile filled out. This is newbie friendly.

Please ask questions if something doesn't seem clear.

Is it okay to do more then 5? I found some fun ones while looking for a few things.

@kimberlym322 - Thank you for your question. Yes, of course it is okay to do more, but the minimum is 5. You might even get a heart if you send more.

I found so many that i thought was good, sounded good or others would like i am just going to turn it in to a mini-cookbook for the person I get. the sad part is I am not done looking for things for it. guess i just have toooooo much time on my hands at work. :)

Very excited. I am struggling to keep it at only 5 as well.

aussielisa...if you do a search of recipes with ______ in it you will get alot of them. that is what I did and found soooooo many of them. the ones that i found i have made a few in the last few days and they are good.

sadly things have come up and I have to drop from the swap.

Hello! I'm new and this swap is my first one! I'm really excited to send out all of the recipes I found! How do we find out who we're mailing to?

Um, I love this! I am going to sign up, and start working on this today! (Waiting to start a new job and have time on my hands). I just joined and dont have a rating. However, I am highly organized and looking forward to sending these out! I do have one question. I am not super artsy, but somewhat crafty. I love to do collages and the like. Is it okay to do that as decoration? Also, before I start, does anyone have an objection to full page? I realize they may not fit in a recipie box and dont want to put time in if they can not be used!

@LindseyAnne - thank you for your question.

By tomorrow morning (September 9) I will have assigned partners. Under Swap Member Options: in the upper right corner box you will find an option to see who you send to, who sends to you with rating options and an option to indicate when you have sent off your recipes. In addition, there should also be an email that will let you know when partners have been assigned.

Remember to indicate in your package the name of the swap and your swap-bot name so your partner will know who it is from.

@kateprice927 - thank you for your question. This is sender's choice on recipes and format (within the above stated guidelines), but if you are concerned it would be very considerate of you to ask your partner what their preference is.

Anna
