In the April Glamour there is an idea for a "different"
bridal shower that I thought I'd share with the net.
If someone you know is getting married this summer and
they are in a different state and you want to do something
for them in terms of a shower, hold a recipe shower.
Send invitations, a note of explanation, and an empty
recipe card to friends of the couple.  Have them share
their favorite recipe and send it back to you. You collect
all the recipes and send them to the bride with a copy of
the invitation.  Not only will the couple have a bunch of
good recipes to start, but each recipe will be hand-written
by their friends.
I'm planning to do this with my best friend in Tennessee
who is getting married in July.  In some stores, you can
find a 'recipe kit' - 20 recipe cards, recipe box, and
dividers for under $10.  So it's a nice, inexpensive, and
unique way to hold a shower.
