Final plans for the swap this week....

We have had a little change in location. This past little while has been so wild and crazy for everyone that we decided to change the location,....here are the details...

Place: :Macaroni Grill in Provo
Time: 8:30 pm
What to bring.....your cards and/or recipe cards. Don't worry about making your dish that you are doing for your recipe cards anymore. We are going to take that stress off of everyone and just meet and have a grand time. I can't wait to see everyone! I feel like it has been a year or more since I have seen you all!

The final list I have is this (I haven't been able to get a response from a couple of people so I am assuming that they aren't doing it anymore :( .....

For both recipe cards and regular cards...
Tanya
Camie
Alauna
Kami
Gina
Celeste
Krystal
Missie
Jennifer
Tiffany
Kim
Julie
Christi

For recipe cards only....
Sarah Jensen
Cheryl Southam
Lindsay Dunn

I hope I haven't forgotten anyone. This is who has either commented on the blog or emailed me. If you can see someone I have missed please let me know. If not, plan on these gals for every month. Please remember if you can't make it to a swap just send your stuff and we will collect for you!

Please comment here and let me know that you got this message ok?

Looking ahead....remember that swap is the 3rd Thursday every month. Sept. and Nov. will be cards and Oct. and Dec. will be recipe swap. Maybe we can meet and bring our potluck in Oct. or Dec. (and really looking ahead....the 3rd Thursday in Dec. will be nuts so let's plan on doing that one on the 2nd Thursday...that will be Dec. 10th....sound ok?)

UPDATE

Sarah Jensen is only doing the recipe exchange.

Hi Everyone!!! ;) Please read this whole post...


I am so excited to see everyone again and catch up on what's been goin' on!!!

So....we voted earlier to have our night on the 3rd Thursday, but this month that falls on the day school starts, sooo.....we decided to do our swap this month on the week after, so.....here are the details!

Our night for August will be
Thursday, August 27th, 8pm, at Julie's house. Thanks Julie!
We will be swapping bbq/picnic recipes, AND cards. Fun huh?
Please bring a sampler of what your recipe is and we will sample each other's stuff. YUM!

Another matter of business...
I have talked this over with a couple of our gals, and they agreed with me, so I think this will be a good idea. Here's the idea...
It is really hard for me every month to try and figure out how many cards/recipes to make, and to let you all know. So here is a new "rule" (for lack of better word)...PLEASE COMMIT ON THIS POST WHETHER YOU ARE IN OR NOT. AND IF YOU ARE STILL IN, WHICH BETTER BE EVERYONE OF YOU, THEN (HERE COMES THE RULE) I THINK WE NEED TO MAKE SURE WE ALL MAKE THE CARDS/ RECIPES FOR EACH MONTH REGARDLESS OF WHETHER WE WILL BE ABLE TO MAKE IT OUT OR NOT. THIS WAY WE WILL MAKE THE SAME AMOUNT OF CARDS/RECIPES EVERY MONTH. THERE WILL BE NO GUESSING, NO TAKING HOME AN ABUNDANT AMOUNT OF THE SAME CARDS WE MADE, AND WE WILL ALL BENEFIT BY HAVING SUCH A VARIETY OF CARDS. IF YOU CAN'T COME, WHICH I HOPE WE CAN ALL BE TO EVERY NIGHT OUT, BUT IF YOU CAN'T MAKE IT, PLEASE JUST MAKE YOUR CARDS/RECIPES AND SEND THEM WITH SOMEONE AND WE WILL COLLECT FOR YOU. THAT WAY YOU GET YOUR GOODS EVEN IF YOU CAN'T BE THERE TOO. I HONESTLY DON'T CARE IF WE HAVE 25 OR MORE IN THE GROUP. I JUST WANT TO KNOW THAT EVERY MONTH THAT'S HOW MANY I WILL MAKE AND THAT'S HOW MANY I WILL RECEIVE. I HOPE YOU ALL AGREE.
SO.......PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE COMMENT ON HERE AND COMMIT, AND IF YOU KNOW ANY GALS THAT DON'T READ THIS BLOG, ASK THEM TO AND ASK THEM TO COMMENT....WHICH IS ONE MORE ITEM OF "BUSINESS".....THIS IS THE BEST WAY FOR US TO ALL COMMUNICATE WITH EACH OTHER, SO PLEASE CHECK THIS BLOG AT LEAST 1-2 TIMES A WEEK.....I WOULD LOVE FOR US TO SHARE WHAT WE ARE DOING OUTSIDE OF MAKING CARDS AND STUFF TOO. LET'S KEEP IN TOUCH! I MISS YOU GALS!!!
