    Just want to let everyone know that we are making a Global Fan Force Cookbook for selling in the coming year.. probably around the beginning of fall 2006 I think it will be printed and ready for sale.. what we are hoping for is a lot of great recipes from fan forces around the world plus brief histories of the contributing fan forces to go into this book that we will then sell for charity. You will be able to presell the books and we will then have the required number shipped to you.. plus any extras you want to sell as well.

    For now the final details are still being worked out.. but the recipes are coming in.. I am hoping to reach more fan force cooks here.. send your recipes to cathiecat@cox.net
    hoping to see your recipe in the mailbox soon.

    This is a really good idea. This way, we can try authentic food from around the world. I sent in one of my original recipes. I can't wait for the book to come out. I love to cook and try new and different foods. =P~

    reminding everyone about this book.. we really want a lot of FF involvement.. so far a few recipes.. but we want a real cookbook.. can't do that with only ten recipes.. tell your groups about this.. they can even sell the book in private bookstores, websites, door to door, at meetings.. and make money for their group and favorite charity as well. The books your group personally orders to sell can technically be sold for whatever fundraiser you choose I have discovered.. so if you sell the books you can use the proceeds after cost to fund your fan force.. and part for charities as well.. the average book will cost about $4 to make.. and they sell for about $10.. leaving $6 left over of profit for the group and charities. This monetary is an estimate of course.. but fairly accurate based on what I have been reading

    you can even presell once we get the book going.

    but we can't do any of it without recipes.

    This is a great idea! once you have your books all set and ordering info let me know , I can hand out flyers for this at the Fanforce awards in april. It would be great if we could have a book there as well :)

    I don't think the book will be ready until Thanksgiving-ish time frame. So I'm not sure that cathiecat will have one to demo at the FF Awards in April.

    I'm about to submit at least 5. I'll have to see if I can't find a few more.

    EDIT: And make sure to let me know when these are released as I'm sure I'll get one.

    Please remind your friends about the cookbook.. email everyone and ask for recipes to be sent to fan-force-recipes@cox.net if we don't start getting more recipes this book might not see the light of day.. we need at least 100/200 recipes.. and we are no where near close yet!! get your cr's to post threads on this on their boards!!

    I have sent out confirmations to all folks that have sent in recipes.. or at least the ones that I have received.. three people have mentioned sending in recipes.. and I am not sure I have gotten theirs, one is not from the boards, and the other two are Rox and VoijaRisa. Let me know if I sent you a thank you and just did not realize it was you. I am going to resend thanks yous to all that have sent in recipes, just in case someone was missed. I have indeed gotten recipes though, several from DG and others from this thread.. which is great.

    here is the email addy again... fan-force-recipes@cox.net


    sorry for the delay in responding, I was in the hospital for a while and then back in for a while again.. and finally I am a bit better and able to get online... unfortunately I missed the posts in March and April, my apologies for that.
