Our Journal - April Avengers

[Turler 6]

Bea...I'm a Margarita nut! I love 'em! We aren't big drinkers, but once in awhile it's fun to let loose!

Why can't we just have a separate thread for each catagory? I know it's lot of threads, but it sure would be nice to have them separated. I just hate reading pages and pages looking for a particular recipe! I wonder if we could talk to Alex about setting up something that would help us keep that kind of thing organized better?

Brandy...good to see you back!

Yeah, I thought of that and maybe I'll send him a message. What I wanted to do was start a thread for recipes and then have a post for chicken, Desserts, etc; however, that would have to be done on a major thread and not just inside April 2008 Bandsters. That's not a problem, I don't mind sharing, but there is already a recipe thread. My other thought was to do it completely off site like on yahoo groups or something. Does anyone else have any thoughts?

Why don't we ask Alex to setup an Avenger's Recipe Book Group...We had him set up a Bagnato Bandits group (my doctor's office bandsters) and he did. The Big Recipe thread is just so intimidating and hard to follow. Whatcha think?

[Brandy~ 2]

The main recipe box is way too hard to follow. I get tired of trying to weed through all of it.

[Bea1128 1]

Yeah, I hate the recipe thread too. I never even go on there and I don't want our thread to turn into that. I don't know what the other thing is, but lets go for it.

[Guest Leslie2Lose]

Do you want me to PM Alex? I can't right now - but I'll do it from the house tonight. K?

[Bea1128 1]

sounds great! thanks!!
