femkes_folliesMoving back to the cookbook idea.
I know they don't pay all that well. But I think I'm still going to give it a go.
What DO y'all think of a cookbook of vintage baking recipes that are converted to be gluten free? Should I add a dairy-free chapter?
How much inclusion of "Life in Holly-land" should intrude into the book? Will it seem "warmer" with sidebars and stories about the wee ones for whom I started the GF thing? Remembrances of being taught to cook?
I'm kind of thinking of also spending the time that I'm compiling recipes collecting vintage dishes and trying to take pictures of the various dishes in them.
Anybody want to test-bake for me? And review? I'll write up a "review form" so you can review both the finished product and the way the recipe is written.
What sort of "look" should I go for? I imagine paying for the rights of actual vintage images might be pricey. What sort of graphical design would say "vintage" to you?
Is it worth maybe sneaking some homey "projects" into things as well? Sewn, quilted, knitted items - one per chapter the evoke the vintage era that the recipes are coming from.
Organize by decade? Or by type of baked good?
