"This was one of the first cookbooks I bought when I started entertaining. It's like all of her books - Playboy for the homemaker - you know your stuff will never look like this but you can't help vicariously staring at the gorgeous stuff in the photos and thinking "well maybe someday ...""
"Having used this book myself for many years, I decided to give it to two new brides recently. This early Martha Stewart book, with its many beautiful photographs, shows how to set a good looking table, which silverware goes where, which glassware goes with what type drinks, and always stresses the art of hospitality. The author offers over 30 specific entertaining situations with interesting observations about each case. I decided it was a "must-have" for new brides. It is easy to read, very detailed, and allows anyone to venture into the field of entertaining guests with confidence."
