Hi Blogging Beauties,
Have you heard about Smash Bookin’??
Smash Bookin is kind of like scrap booking but it can be messy and quick…it doesnt have to be a perfect page…hence no pressure for each page to be a masterpiece. This suits me.
There is a free group organised by Suzanne Dean here. It is full of monthly challenges, conversations and inspiration. I have decided to make my Smash book into a Recipe Book. I dont have the proper “Smash Book” I am just using an old photo album and collecting my favourite tried and true recipes and dinner ideas. I just wanted a place to have all my favourite recipes in one place. I have done four pages so far.
The top recipe is a delicious and rich slice. Still three pieces left in the fridge…if you like chocolate and turkish delight give this one a try!
Second one is a vegetarian curry. Delicious, but I recommend cutting the curry back a lot as it was way too hot for Ben and I.
Third one is a quick and easy, yummy meal. Could be a salad at a shared dinner or lunch…but we had it as an evening meal on its own.
Last one is a quick and easy chicken recipe.
My Recipe Smash Book idea doesn’t really fit into this month’s challenge, but I am just linking it up here to share what I have done with the group.

What a great idea, thanks for the inspiration!
I love it Alicia! All the pages are so pretty and it's great to make something so practical!
Love your smash book Alicia, a brilliant idea to do one for recipes.

I have been saving recipes pretty much that way for years. OK the pages are not decorated at all! Just snip and glue and put into a 3 ring binder. I go to it BEFORE the big fancy cookbook. I like the tried and true. Those chocolate bars look devine!
Your pages look great and some yummy sounding recipes there too. What a fantastic version of scrap booking. Might be what I need. I really want to scrap my sons school years….just have to get started.
Hi Alicia, This sounds fasinating and very interesting thank you for sharing this:) Sanda H
