This is a 1981 book called A birthday book a keepsake of dates to remember forever. A big book to write in the birthdays of friends and families. Pages are not numbered. It is full of vintage art and quotes and then blank places to fill in those Birthdays. Please feel free to alter in the area where you would write in birthdays. Book is used and does have some birthdays written. That is not the goal. I will draw a line through those entries. Just cover them up with paper or art. You can work on any month or page or quote or vintage art that you want. Or you can just chose the month you were born or your kids. Please limit yourself to two entries and two weeks to pass it on. write DNA on pages you Do NOT want altered or added to. Please alter the vintage artwork in good taste pg 13. Return book to Azmom875@yahoo.com I will register this with bookcrossing so please do log it in there.

I don’t like to cook, but I do like eating! Also, as a single type person, I hate spending lots of time cooking for just me. I’m also not very good at inventing or finding recipes, so I’m asking you, the BookMooch Community, for your simple Recipes. Feel free to add pictures, talk about what the recipe means to you, or maybe explain an ingredient if it is only found regionally!
When I get the book back, I will scan the pages into a PDF and make it available for download so everyone can have the recipes!

Do you know who George Noory is, than this journal is for you. This journal is for those who are interested in or have experiences with the paranormal. Encounters with Big Foot, aliens, UFO, ghosts, the Jersey Devil or anything else are acceptable. It is even for skeptics who have had an experience they just can’t explain. Did you pull of a hoax? We’d like to hear about it. Photographs, art works and creative writing about the unexplained are all welcome too.

This journal is simple. It is all about graffiti – in any form. Do you have an appreciation for graffiti? Are you a graffiti artist or do you know someone who is? Have you seen/photographed graffiti that is elaborate, funny, random, thought-provoking, etc? Include a photo of urban art or graffiti you a have seen or maybe it is something you came across on the internet or something your children drew in the driveway. You can even graffiti a page yourself if you prefer. If you want to write about why you like a particular work or your experience with graffiti – that is fine, if you would rather just include a couple of snap shots that if fine too. When the journal is complete, the pages will be scanned and posted on the web.
Repost within 2 weeks. Please be respectful of other entries and do not alter or cover up. When this journal is full, please please please, send it back to Katherine Ransbottom.
