So I got an interesting request from D1 tonight. She is moving into her first apartment next month. She will be home for Thanksgiving and wants to spend some time going through some of my recipes and making copies to take with her. She wants me to get a recipe card box (index card box), and make it ‘pretty and cute’. I told her I could probably find a cute one somewhere, that lots of little boutiques and gift shops have that kind of thing; then she fessed up that it’s something she wants me to give to her. So I called her on being sentimental, and she fessed up.

So now I feel like I should attempt to be creative, and I’m sure there’s someone on CC who has done this sort of project. I’d appreciate some creative ideas.
