The WAS-H Illustrated Cookbook

It will be designed to combine flavorful culinary artistry with sensations of your artful watercolor. Most of us have enjoyed various treats prepared by members at many of our events, and wanted others' recipes. It's time to gather them all together in one collection.

We plan to produce a "WAS-H Cookbook" with proceeds of the sales to benefit WAS-H. The cookbooks will be sold for $20 at WAS-H functions such as the Art Festival and general meetings and will be endorsed by a well-known Houston chef.
Do you have favorite holiday recipes? Tried and true edible contributions to WASH receptions and workshops? Family traditional recipes? Those quick meals you can assemble for an impatient and hungry family in a "dinner emergency"? Healthy adaptations of older recipes? Please share them with all of us!

You can email your recipes (in Word document form if you can) to Carol Relihan at carolrelihan@mac.com. It would be terrific if you can include some background about the recipe, such as family history; where in course of travels you found this favorite; recommended wine pairings; serving suggestions; or other background information.
Categories: Food items. Wine and Beverage items. Kitchen Utensils. Table Settings. People Dining. Groceries.
Submit your watermedia paintings and sketchest via"snail mail" to Carol Relihan c/o WASH's mailing address.
