The Bourbon County Citizen invites everyone to submit their “ole time” recipes to appear in a special 250th Commemorative Recipe Book in celebration of the 250th birthday of America.
Along with many events (parades, Veteran’s activities, concerts, golf tournaments, 5K runs, bike tours, and much more), the newspaper will publish a unique cookbook with recipes passed down from generations. These recipes will not likely be found on any google search.
Each recipe will not only display the name of the person who submitted it but also the name of the person from whom the recipe first came from and it will be listed in their memory. Help us create the “Recipes from 250 Years of Cooking in Bourbon County”!
You can submit your favorite recipes handed down from your grandmothers and great grandmothers by email to [email protected] and mail them to The Bourbon County Citizen, P.O. Box 158, Paris Ky. 40362.
