As much as I don’t want to think about it, the holiday season is quickly approaching.  Now, I am a firm believer that November is to celebrate Thanksgiving, and Thanksgiving only, but there are some gifts that you have to get to work on before turkey month is over.  I found a great gift idea that I will be making for a couple of people in the family this year and I wanted to share it with you.

It’s a recipe book, but one that you help put together.  I am gathering recipes from family and scrapbooking them.  Any family member that gives a recipe will write a small note on a note card for the person you are creating the book for so you can include it beside the recipe.  It will take some effort on your part, but it will be worth it.   I saw it just yesterday on the Rachael Ray show.  Nancy O’Dell created this recipe scrapbook, and it is so special and meaningful for any member of the family.  I will be creating a couple of these books for my new sister-in-law and a recently married cousin.  If you’re new to scrapbooking like I am, then take a look to see what Nancy O’Dell has to say about it.
