All This Partying Makes Me Hungry

Over two straight weeks of birthday partying can really give a girl an appetite. I think I want something a little out of the ordinary though. Maybe something from the gourmet section. Oh, look at that great selection of fresh stamps. And that patterned paper -- I can definitely whip up something delicious with that!

Hungry for something creative, too? Our sponsor today is Scrappy Gourmet, where you can find tasteful designs for the scrapbooker's palate. I think you know my modus operandi by now. I post a challenge and then sit back and reap all the creative inspiration from your wonderful submissions. BWHAHAHAHAHAHA. Crap, did I do that out loud?

Well, today I am particularly craving some inspirations to slake my hunger. I don't want to just whet my appetite; I want it all baby! Today's challenge is to create a layout or other project that features a recipe. It could be a treasured family heirloom that reminds you of your grandmother's cooking. Or the recipe of your mother-in-law's famous pot roast that keeps your hubby smiling. Or even a recipe you have been meaning to try but just haven't worked up the nerve.

These creations need to be new for this challenge, please. Include the recipe in your description when you post to the special gallery that Scrappy Gourmet created for us. You don't have to post the link here; we will be judging from the gallery. The deadline will be 6 p.m. EST tomorrow, Saturday, 2/17. Scrappy Gourmet is offering some awesome prizes for our 3 favorite entries: a $50 package, a $100 package, and a $150 package! They wouldn't tell me what was in each package but they hinted that prizes are pretty cool and will be sure to please. ;)

So go whip up something fab. ;)

I've been trying for an hour and a half and cannot get this uploaded. Is there somewhere else I can try? An email address or a different site?

I submitted my entry this morning, but I just wanted to say that it was very fun. I love your challenges. I have tons of photos to scrap, and sometimes, I'm just out of ideas...Well, your challenges really inspire me.
Thanks again, and good luck to everyone.
