Synopsis
This hefty and useful book includes a memoir of Martha Stewart's large Polish family and her upbringing in suburban New Jersey, plus chapters on how to make guests comfortable; create an ambience; set the table (a straw-covered one for an outdoor buffet, a centerpiece of Savoy cabbages); make the food look beautiful; get organized; choose the music (taped or live); choose and create drinks; and, last but far from least, the food: shrimp wrapped in snowpeas for an Oriental buffet; phyllo triangles filled with curried walnut chicken for a cocktail party; honey squash pie for a holiday party; wedding cake for an at-home wedding; mushroom vichyssoise for a country luncheon; croquembouche for a Christmas Open House; and much, much more.

Industry Reviews
"Mrs. Stewart's relaxed but organized approach to what many would consider a monumental event reflects her practiced ease as a hostess and professional caterer...Mrs. Stewart hopes her book will inspire people to use their imaginations to create an atmosphere of caring--to make guests feel comfortable and special..."
Christian Science Monitor - Jane Anderson (12/15/1982)

"Any form of entertaining involves expanding a private world to include others. It calls for an extrovert's heart and an introvert's soul."
Introduction - Martha Stewart
