Questions about holiday plans
How much does it cost?
Nothing. The plan is free and there's nothing to buy. The Food Receipt doesn't sell baked goods, catering, classes or subscriptions. The website may show ads to help cover its costs.
How will my information be used?
Only to put together and email your plan, and to answer any questions you send back. Your details are never sold or shared, never added to a mailing list, and never used for advertising. Requests are deleted within 12 months, or sooner if you ask. See our Privacy Practices.
Can you include my family's own recipe?
You're welcome to mention family favorites in the notes, and we'll fit them into the timeline. The recipes we link to will come from our own recipe box.
What about food allergies?
We'll avoid recipes containing the allergens you mention, but can't guarantee any dish is free of them. Most baked goods contain wheat, milk and eggs, so always read labels and avoid cross-contact.
