Looking to start a cooking group on facebook! help! thanks!?

[set in my DNA]

ok so I wanan start a group on facebook. I started on before and it was for books, like reccomendations and such but nooone ever gets on it. I have joined a group that is a online bake sale so I was thinking maybe a group that you can trade recipes or ask questions about cooking! what are some other tups you can give me to keep this group running and for people to use it!? thanks and God Bless!

Maybe people have a hard time reading your page because your spelling is awful. Here, you have spell check and don't use it. On Facebook, you're on your own. I know I wouldn't bother trying to read a Facebook group's page if it wasn't done well.

That is a great idea, I think the problem might be letting people know you are out there, try to get as many "likes" from friends and family as possible as a first step, post fliers around letting people know it is out...

Cooking? I'd be open to joining. but what you describe, describes a site called bakespace.com. It's really two sites in one, because you have to have a separate password for the recipe/tip sharing community with in bakespace.com But it's a great idea!

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a 12-capacity muffin pan with cooking spray.

In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar, the pecans and cinnamon.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose and whole-wheat flour, baking soda and salt.

In a large bowl, whisk the remaining 3/4 cup sugar and oil until combined. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, whisking well after each addition. Whisk in the applesauce and vanilla.

Whisk in the flour mixture in 2 batches, alternating with the buttermilk. Whisk just until combined. Gently stir in the apple chunks.

Pour the batter into the prepared muffin pan and sprinkle with the pecan mixture. Tap the pan on the counter a few times to remove any air bubbles. Bake for 20 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center of 1 of the muffins comes out clean.

Let cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the muffins to loosen them and unmold. Cool completely on the rack.
