crop

crop
 n.— «Many communities have scrapbooking clubs where scrapbookers can get to together to scrapbook, share ideas, show each other photographs, and talk for hours. Some craft stores also have a scrapbooking night for this same purpose (usually with the hope that people will buy a few things). These scrapbooking nights or “crops,” as they are called by scrapbookers, are a great way to get out of the house and spend some time socializing with other people.» —“5 Reasons Why Scrapbooking Should Be Your Next Hobby” by Nicole Fisher Melodika.net Jan. 20, 2008.
