Summary
Whether hosting a Lumberjack Lunch, coping with alcoholic party guests making beards out of the cheese dip, or thoughtfully pre-opening the liquor at a wake so no one hesitates to get started, actress/comedian Amy Sedaris-best known for her television show, STRANGERS WITH CANDY-shares a wealth of hosting tips in this humorous and bizarre hospitality book, which is filled to the brim with recipes, theme parties, etiquette advice, craft ideas, and more. There’s no other hostessing book quite like it! A few of the many recipes include Captain’s Mouthwatering Bite-Size Blue Ball Cheese Balls, Southern Fried Chicken, Neptune’s Hush Puppies, Parent/TeacherYellow Cake, and Coconut Cream Pie. The lively text is accompanied by full-color photographs of Sedaris in a variety of scenarios, food stills that mimic 1950s cookbooks, highly amusing spot art, and a stunning collection of vintage props. Co-written with Paul Dinello.

"To fully appreciate the genius of Amy Sedaris' hilarious guide to the domestic arts, you need a taste of her hospitality wisdom. On composing the invite list: 'If the party is going to be made up of mostly young girls, then you might want to invite some old men. Nothing makes them feel more alive.'...[T]he best hostess gift on the planet."
"[W]onderfully dizzy...I'm ready to unleash 7,000 pounds of wacky at my next gathering." -- Henry Alford

House Beautiful Entertaining
by
Extraordinary secrets from the world's best-known hosts What's the difference between an awkward gathering and the buzz of a great party? It's the host-and the way the host orchestrates each element to put the guests at ease, from the lighting to the seating to the meal itself. Entertaining is about much more than the food. It's about sociability and atmosphere, planning and style. In House Beautiful Entertaining we visit the kitchens of some of the best-known hosts in the United States and Europe and learn their entertaining secrets: a casual outdoor lunch with Patricia Wells, a picnic with Edna Lewis, an authentic Provencale Christmas dinner, a lunch with Alice Waters. House Beautiful editors have selected over 150 of their favorite recipes, from the fancy-Daniel Boulud's beloved chocolate desserts-to the exotic-a Moroccan feast-to the comforting- a hearty cassoulet from chef Henry Meer-to the homey-a family Thanksgiving dinner. Along the way we learn the secrets behind classic party dishes, from how to make the lightest souffle to how to bake the most luscious fruit tart.
