Re: [cookbook] Where are the chefs?

["Joseph Hall" <joseph thatworks com>]

I was hoping I wasn't too late, but judging by this message it looks
like not much has happened with the cookbook lately anyway.

I baked some cheesecakes a few months ago, using the Gnome logo with
the permission of Mairin Duffy:

She emailed me a while back and suggested that I submit my recipe to
the Gnome cookbook. I planned to, but it's been a busy few months. Can
I still submit the recipe?
