If you are outside the continental US or if you wish to purchase multiple copies of the cookbook please PM WillyWump for a shipping quote.

After payment is received, please allow 10 days for shipping.


Your purchase will help assist a fellow member(s) to attend the AMG in Seattle in August, a member who would otherwise might not be able to attend. On behalf of the Grants Comittee and the members who submitted recipes, we would like to thank you in advance for your support. Bon Appetit!

All,

There has been some questions and confusion regarding paying via PayPal. Perhaps the instructions should have been clearer in the original post.

For those of you that have never used PayPal:

You cannot just click on the AMgatherings@yahoo.com email link and enter a credit card. Sorry, it's not that easy.

1)You will need to go to PayPal.com and click on "Send Money".

2)Enter the dollar amount ($10.00) and then click send to "Friends and Family". Click continue.

3)This will take you to a page where you enter the email address that you are sending money to, you will enter "AMgatherings@yahoo.com". Click continue.

4)On the next page you will enter your name, address, credit card number (*note- this creates a PayPal account for you).

5)Click submit and the money is sent directly to the AMG account.

There is a charge to send money through PayPal using your Debit or Credit Card ( .59 to send $10). If you link your bank account there is no charge to send money, however you are not required to link your bank account.

If you are uneasy with any of this PayPal stuff, you can always just send a check or money order! To do so just Pm Grants Committe for the remittance address.

Just FYI, I have had a PayPal account linked to my Credit Card and personal bank account for many years with no problems.

Please let us know if there are any questions :)

Will, you've done a great job coordinating this. I've just added $$ to my PayPal account so when that transfer completes (3 days they say) I'll be ordering several copies. Someone close to me wants 5 already! So I'm thinking at least 8 for me for starters.

Hello Fellow Chefs, and Chef Wannabes,

Just an FYI, we are getting PayPal payments coming in that have a Name and Address to send the cookbooks to but no way to attribute them to a Forum member (the screenname is not included). This is fine and not a problem, however if you would like a direct PM acknowledgement and thank you from the Forums Grants Committee then please provide your Screenname in the message portion of the Paypal screen. Otherwise you will only get an email reply from the AMgatherings@yahoo email account.

On that note, we understand that people may want to maintain their anonymity here on the forums and may be uncomfortable with giving their name and address to order a cookbook. Let us state unequivocally that any names and addresses given while ordering the cookbook, or any donations made to the GC will be held in strictest confidence by the Grants Committee, and any personal info will be deleted and destroyed after the cookbooks have mailed.

It's great to see the orders rolling in!

WooHoo! The paypal transfer finally went thru, so I'm ready to get my cookbook. ;D

The weirdest thing?? My mom asks me today if I've ordered one. I'mma like "how'd you know about that?" "Oh I lurk around there sometimes" she coys replies. Shoot! Leatherman better watch what he's saying. ROFLMAO

Thanks for all the work you put into this Will  ;D :-*
and thanks to everybody that contributed!

Hey everyone, thanks for the great response to the cookbook. We are getting alot of orders and I'm trying to get them processed as quick as I can :)

Also remember this was not done only by me, Phildinftlaudy (phil) paid for half the production costs, as a donation to the effort, which was not pocket change. He also played a HUGE part in planning the cookbook taking my calls late at night with various procedural questions,etc.. He also is keeping track of all the sales and such. So yay Phil!

But most of all, the people who contributed recipes and those that are purchasing the book are making this a success!

Round of applause for Phil and everyone who participated! What a great way to come together for the AMG Grants Committee, what an amazing group of people we have here :)

We all know a quarter of those calls were for emotional support regarding your tiny balls, and another quarter were phone sex sessions. Or attempted phone sex sessions. Willy, we know you'd do that, phil might maintain his professionalism and resist Willy's advances.

But yes, we appreciate both of your, ahem, "hard" work. And donations of time and money. So who cares if you spend some of that time spanking the monkey together  :P ;D :P ;D

Oops! Let it slip. Well, at least you can look at it this way. I have a feeling the percentage of forum members that come to the forum gatherings section is on the lower side of things. Maybe that will be changing with your post in the Living With HIV forum, but it seems most people don't show up here!

I just ordered 5 cookbooks (one for myself, one for a friend, one for my brother, one for my sister, and one for the parents)

Did it right through PayPal - so easy...

Can't wait to have all the recipes that members have contributed located in one location so I can start trying them out.

I got mine today and I love it!  All the hard work really shows through, I could even wait to get home to open it. I opened it walking home from the mailbox.

Those that submitted recipes can check being published off their bucket lists...I did.  ;D

I received mine today (also opened it while walking into the house from the mailbox.)  It was a wonderful feeling to see the names of my AM friends on the various pages and to know that this effort will help someone attend this summer's AMG.  Please consider supporting this very worthwhile endeavor!

LOL Everything was closed down for three days cause there was 3 inches of snow and ice. But never fear, March - and Spring - are just around the corner so I'll be back in the pool and in my speedo soon enough. ;)
Time for me to go find a good warm recipe from the book to try for dinner. MMM Bacon-wrapped stuffed chicken breasts sound yummy served with some wild rice and homemade yeast rolls.

Ok Smartasses.

A little history of the mail service and I,

We have a tenous relationship, it's been ongoing for years. It all began with a small skirmish between my carrier and I, it seems you cannot park your car within 20 feet of a mailbox or else you get a nasty note and no mail delivered... Ohh, but he can get out of his little buggy and walk over to my car and put a note on it, but he cant put my mail in the box. I once collected 4 notes in a week (but no mail) I was quite proud of my achievement. I dont even use my mailbox, I do all my stuff online. So all I get is crap. But yet "Newman" finds it necessary to leave notes on my car because he cant deliver his crap. So it's basically a standoff. Although lately I've been keeping the mailbox area clear as AMG stuff is arriving through the mail.

So this little feud has boiled over into the lobby of my neighborhood post office, as "Newman" sometimes works the window.  So this customs forms business is merely continued harassment of me by my nemisis the postman. Hell, now they have me unpacking and repacking books at the window (and no, I will not step aside). You really, really do not want to be the person behind me at the post office.

With that being said, some of you have had your books sent by Priority Mail (on my dime), you can thank Newman for that as he thinks it's funny to tell me what box to use and then changes the price at the window because he knows I will not unpack and repack the same books again.

I will prevail when it comes to the USPS.

-Will

PS- Order more cookbooks so I can pester Newman some more.

I made Phildinftlaudy's "Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Chicken Breasts" today.

Flipping through the book, this recipe caught my eye, so I made a grocery list. I drink a 2-liter of Coke a day and I was down to one, so today was a guaranteed trip to the store anyway LOL

Maybe because of the time of year, but there was no fresh broccoli. I hate frozen broccoli usually because it's mainly the stems. Yuck! So I opted to try a bag of frozen broccoli, cauliflower and carrots. I diced up half an onion and the last two stalks of celery in the veggie keeper drawer of the frig.

Luckily coincidentally, the store had the hugest chicken breasts on sale, so I now have a bunch in the freezer and kept 3 out to use. I've choked the chicken before ROFL but never pounded it, so that was a new experience in the kitchen and tons of fun. I had Chromeo blasting on my headphones and hammered to the beat. LOL

I'm glad I had the toothpicks laid out and ready (along with the cheese, ham and veggies diced up) because I over-stuffed and had a devil of a time keeping them all together (and all the good stuff inside) while I wrapped them in bacon.

The house smelled great while they were cooking. With a side of rice, cranberry orange relish, and a light mushroom gravy - OMG! Neither my mom or I could eat a whole one of those huge stuffed breasts even though they were very delicious! This is definitely a good recipe and one I'll make again.


Yummy! Thanks Phildinftlaudy!

Mike and Jan:

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed them --- I have tried different variations on them -- sometimes I make homemade stuffing to stuff them with --- that also has come out yummy.

Made the mushroom gravy covered cube steaks yesterday....

Can't wait til my cookbooks get here - so I can try some of the many recipes that it's loaded with.

don't worry. ;) I've been putting together recipes for next year's fundraiser cookbook.

I have a recipe for "eggnog cheesecake" recipe that doesn't taste at all eggnog-y but is very yummy and well worth making. I will not inflict the "eggnog cake" on anyone or the three pecan pie recipes that I've tried out because none of them were any good at all - the pecan pies were all runny and the eggnog cake was only eggynog-y when I warmed it up and poured eggnog on it LOL.

Oh and my Mom is biffed that I didn't submit any of my holiday recipes like "Jezebel Sauce" ::) or a Christmas/Winter standard "Instant Russian Tea Mix", or "Orange-Glazed Pecans".

But that's next year, lol
Everyone buy THIS year's book and tell us which ones you tried and liked!  ;D

I was wondering how you were going to do that.   ::)

RAB   ;)


I forgot to add in the book that you actually have to be in the Australian outback to cook the Croc recipe.. ;D

Are you saying you can't get Croc fillets at your local supermarker? colore me :o

If you can't get Croc fillets then any meat fillets will do... enjoy.

I received my cookbook and LOVE it! Everyone involved did an amazing job and who else but Miss P would give a recipe that takes up FOUR pages, LOL! I really like that it's not your standard cookbook. I appreciate the cooking instructions and tips, some of which I found to be quite funny. The opening quote was quite touching. Again, great job everyone.

P.S. I think I may have to go shopping tomorrow for Skeebo's BBQ salad.
