Over the winter of 2019, Wendy went through all of her mother's favourite recipes and asked friends and families to contribute their ideas on the favourite foods Marion used to make. She decided she wanted to make a cookbook with these recipes, but added another twist - she wanted it in Marion's own handwriting! Forward a few months and lots of scanning through recipe cards, we developed a "MarionStrickland" font to use in creating this book. We created this font on Caligraphr (https://www.calligraphr.com/en/), and the result was spectacular.
The cookbook itself got printed through Blurb.ca (our favourite book making company). Now is the time to share this work with everyone, using two different methods:
- If you would like to download and view the electronic (pdf) version of the cookbook for FREE, here is the file. The cookbook file is quite large (37Mb), so you may want to download it onto a computer rather than a phone.
- If you would like to purchase a physical copy of the book, click on the link below to go to our Blurb bookstore page where you can purchase online and have it sent directly to your door. The hardcover book will cost C$ 50.39 on the Blurb website (this is the same price that we paid - we added no profit margin!).
We hope that you will enjoy this cookbook as much as we do. Please let us know if you have any problems downloading it, or if you have any comments you would like to share about this project in memory of Marion.
