Almost

 Great ambitions and plans can always be changed. After the girls great retreat up at Bonnie and Ken's cabin by Donner Lake, it was decided to make the cookies they had up there, put together recipe books for everyone, and pack up the bags to give to girls who weren't able to make it. 

Arriving at the church, we found the kitchen being used by the young men, so we decided to put the recipe books together. It turned out that it really was a three hour job, not the one hour that we had. We spent the entire time gluing soft pages to card stock, lining them up and punching a hole, then decorating just a little. In the hour we put together almost 13 to 15 books. It was a good service project.  Not complete, but good. Now I and some of the others are going to glue pages and stack up recipe books during general conference this weekend so that sometime we can finish our project.

Good thing we had a heavy duty punch as going through all the cards and paper was tough.
