COVID Cookbook

To combat the boredom of the quarantine lifestyle, many of us have taken to running extra miles - and cooking extra meals. Let's share our favorite COVID recipes with the rest of the club! Send your recipe to - christinabcrr@gmail.com by Friday, April 3rd, and I'll compile a cookbook to share! Feel free to include any photos or stories about your favorite recipe. America's next great baker could arise from this quarantine!
