The Family
Everyone at the table, in one book.
The interview gives the book its history. The family gives it everything else. You add your own recipes, and each person you invite adds what only they know, from their phone, in their own words.

- Your recipes
- Added from your phone: typed in, or a photograph of the card. Or simply told to us in the interview.
- Who
- Anyone you invite: children, grandchildren, cousins, the friends who were always at the table
- From where
- Their phone, wherever they are. No app, no account.
- What they send
- A recipe, the story behind it, an old photograph
- How
- Typed in, or a photograph of the handwritten card
- When
- Any time while the book is being made
- What we do
- Read every page, edit it, and set it in the book beside the interview
From wherever they are
Many voices, shared stories.

Who made it first? When does it get made?
Grandma made it every Sunday after mass. The secret is the pork rib, and the patience. Nobody was allowed to lift the lid.

The story
Who made it first, when it gets made, who it was for. And an old photograph, if there is one.

Their page
They see their page before it goes to print, signed in their own hand.
Your sister remembers the kitchen one way. Your son remembers it another. The book needs both.
