I reserve the right to refuse anyone. If you have feedback that shows a history of incomplete packages, very late sending, ill-communication, lack of DC #'s, etc. I may refuse you. I want this to be a flake-free swap!

Details of Swap: Don't you love your favorite recipes?  They comfort and impress, and they never let you down!  Well, one thing I love as much as my fave recipes is trying out new ones.  So here is the idea for this swap...

* Exchange 5 of your favorite recipes (ones you know and love… send only ones you have actually made)

* Recipes must include at least one main, one side, & one sweet treat (sweet treat could be a fave fruit dish)

* You will exchange recipes in a group of 3-5 people (group number depends on how many sign up)

* You must recognize the source of your recipe (book, relative, website...see quote below for additional details)

* No photocopies of recipes  (please either type or neatly write)

* No DC# will be required, but if an envelope/package goes astray, you must resend

This is from the Scrapbook Cookbook Swap, but I thought the basic idea covers what we are doing.

Lothruin is our moderator who knows more about copyrights than anyone, and here's what she had to say:

Recipes are actually kind of weird. From the copyright office:

A mere listing of ingredients is not protected under copyright law. However, where a recipe or formula is accompanied by substantial literary expression in the form of an explanation or directions, or when there is a collection of recipes as in a cookbook, there may be a basis for copyright protection.

Basically, recipes aren't copyrightable, but their instructions might be. Emphasis on might. It depends on the format, I think. However, it is VERY important that the Craftster know that online recipes are likely to contain the same copyright protection, such as it is, as any recipes found in books. In other words, just because it is "free on the net" doesn't mean it's not copyrighted, as much as it is possible to copyright any recipe, which is less than other things. lol Like I said, recipes are weird.

So, for the posting recipes in thread, I would say, they should find a link, just like when my knitters want to post a pattern they like. If they can't find a link to the actual pattern, then we request they list the source material, but not the actual pattern.

But for the guidelines for source material for the actual cookbooks... All the recipes on FoodNetwork actually have a copyright notice. The best source is going to be old cookbooks or family recipes. There's really no way around that. I don't know what limited rights are granted to users on the recipe websites, but theoretically they have the right to print off at least one copy of a recipe for personal use, and if they choose to make a scrap cookbook for someone else out of that copy of the recipe, then I suspect that would fall under fair use. But she would probably want to research the specific rights granted by each specific website, because they'll all be a little different.

:::tee, hee:::  Ah, but this one is easy, peasy...it shouldn't interfere too much with etsy & holiday crafting

[jezebel_1982]

sent in my questionnaire...sou nds like a quick easy swap, and hopefully we will have some new recipes to try out for the upcoming holiday season

[Gspinn]

I absolutely loved the first round and have been waiting for another round! I sent in my questionnaire and can't wait to pick out recipes

[Smeddley]

This sounds deceptively easy... but I still am working on two swaps (Cryptozoology and HOGWARTS!   ) so I should wait until I have those done before I sign up... luckily, they're both due before the deadline...  I LOVE weird recipes, though - bacon cookies, sauerkraut cookies, tomato soup cookies... I'm seeing a theme in my recipes...
