Lay Out the Cookbook
Assemble the heirloom: every tested recipe in its chapter, the provenance kept beside the food — whose recipe it was, what table it came from — chapter intros in the family's voice, print-ready pages. The book that exists because someone finally sat down and made it. Locks the inclusion rule FIRST — tested recipes in, untested listed for the next round, never silently dropped — then lays out the chapters, then proofs every eligible recipe made it in with its story intact. Use for laying out the family cookbook, the heirloom recipe book, 'print the cookbook', and a recipe book for the grandchildren.
How it runs
| # | Step | Who runs it | What happens |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Scope the book | Developer | inclusion rule from the shelf, chapter order, page rules |
| 2 | Lay out the book | Designer | cover, chapters, one recipe per page with provenance |
| 3 | Evaluate | Reviewer | Grade the deliverable against every acceptance criterion. All pass → finish; any fail → loop back and fix the gap. |
| 4 | Finish | Developer | All acceptance criteria met. Stamp a short summary and report DONE. |
