Cookbook Scrapbook Idea



This is one of my favorite things to make around here, Bruschetta! We love it! Josie and I can't get enough of it. I think last summer we had it just about once or twice a week. Sometimes when I make things I like to take pictures of the food. My eye is always looking for a picture I think. So, when I was doing this, it got me thinking......what could I do with all these pics that I have of dishes I have made? That's when I decided I would make a scrapbook cookbook for my girls. I am going to compile all our favorite recipes and things they love to eat, take pictures, scrap a little and tell a little about why each dish was their favorite. I found some adorable paper for the book and can't wait to get started. I am only making one, so the girls will either have to share or maybe one will be more of a cook than the other when they grow up. Right now, my money is on Ava for that. She loves to cook with me.

  1. Yum-o! I love this stuff too! Although, with the small amount of home grown tomatoes this past summer, I hardly made this or salsa. I hope this year is better. Do you use fresh or canned when you make it this time of year?

  2. Hey there! I crave it so much that I still make it in the winter...I have been using fresh tomatoes, usually the Roma or the ones on the vine. I just kinda eyeball them. I am definitely ready for some summer ones! :)

  3. Dana...I miss having your delicous Bruschetta. Guess I will have to break down and make a big batch for us. You know how much Donnie loves it. You had us so spoiled this past summer sharing yours with us. I should have your recipe here in Florida. If not, I WILL be emailing or calling you. I love your idea of making a scrapbook cookbook for the girls. You have so many wonderful recipes. Love you....
