A Recipe for Sisterhood - Our NEW Cookbook Project

 Hello Ladies!

This year we’ve been trying to find ways to make membership dues go further, and to ensure that we can continue to do this for years to come we are kicking off a new fundraising effort.

Now--this e-mail is not one asking for donations! What we actually need from you is your favorite recipe!

We’re working to create an AOII Boston Alumnae Chapter cookbook, featuring favorite recipes from all of our members. Once we collect your recipes, we’ll compile them and turn them into a professional-looking cookbook that you can order for yourself, your friends, and/or your family! It will make a great gift AND you’ll know the recipes are delicious because they’ve come directly from your sisters who have tried them out.

By October 21, 2012, please consider sending us:
  •     Your favorite recipe (or even your top 3)
  •     If the recipe is adapted from another source, such as a cookbook, magazine, or website, please include the source title, web URL, and/or issue date (if applicable)
  •     A story to go along with the recipe (not required, but we want to make this personal and fun!)
  •     A picture of the recipe, of you with your cooked dish, or just of your beautiful face
  •     Your name, collegiate chapter of initiation, and initiation year


All recipes, stories, and pictures can be sent to Lauren Simpson, our fundraising chair, at L.Simpson714@gmail.com.

Thanks in advance for your participation!
