The cookbook that starts at the table

Collect the recipes that make your Thanksgiving yours - from the turkey to the pie everyone argues about.

Every family does Thanksgiving differently and that's exactly what makes it worth capturing. A personalized cookbook gathers the recipes, the traditions and the stories from everyone who gathers around your table, bound together as a professional book you'll reach for every year.

Preserve the recipes before they're lost

Common questions

When should I order for Thanksgiving?

Work back from the date: most organizers give contributors 2-4 weeks, and printing and delivery take 7-10 working days once you approve the layout. About six weeks is comfortable; less is possible if people reply quickly.

Who can contribute to the book?

Everyone gets their own link. They add a recipe, a note about why it matters and optionally a photo - no account needed, and it takes about five minutes. You can also add recipes on behalf of anyone who would rather not.

Can I include handwritten recipe cards?

Yes, and they are often the best pages in the book. Photograph the original card and it can sit alongside the typed-up version, so you get a recipe you can cook from and the handwriting of the person who wrote it.

Can I order a copy for each household?

Yes. Plenty of people order several, and the per-book price comes down the more you order. You approve one proof and every copy is printed from it.

"Every recipe came with a memory, moments shared with family and friends, along with a heartfelt note about why it matters to them and when they love to cook it."
