Entertaining for All Seasons is for creative homemakers, new and seasoned, who want to decorate, cook, and host holiday parties people will love to attend and always remember!

GET FRIENDS AND FAMILY INTO THE ACT!

You’ll discover simple ways to surprise, involve, and delight your family and friends! 
For instance,

Christmas.  Help children make precious gifts.  Dance around the tree like families do in Copenhagen. 

New Year’s Day.   Celebrate in Harry Potter style, with wizards, celestial décor, and fireside magic.

Valentine’s Day.  Stage a Queen of Hearts croquet party for the kids and take your sweetheart for a romantic trip down Memory Lane.

Mother’s Day.  Pamper her with a spa treatment or elegant, yet make-ahead garden party!

Father’s Day.  Treat Dad like a Greek god! Learn how to make him feel like a hero with ideas that can work for his birthday, too.

Fourth of July.  Enroll kids in historic dramatic play that will entertain the whole family!

Halloween.  Bring out the artist in everyone!  Make it fun, creative, and tasty for adults, as well as children.

Thanksgiving.  Ask family members to vote on which delicious traditions to include this year.

CELEBRATE THE SEASONS WITH INTERNATIONAL FLAIR! 

Entertaining for All Seasons is for romantic, yet practical entertainers who resonate to changes in the seasons. It’s for people who not only love celebrating holidays, but also those who can only fantasize about spending vacations in wonderful places!  Reach for Entertaining for All Seasons whenever you crave a get-away! Take your family or friends “on vacation”—at home! 

Learn how to infuse holidays and “staycations” with the ambiance (sights, sounds, fun, and flavors) of international destinations:

Winter.  Toast Christmas in Denmark with glögg and open “crackers” in England.  Eat Peking Pancakes on New Year’s Day in China.  Search for gold coins on St. Patrick’s Day in Ireland.

Spring.  Invite guests for an elegant Parisian soirée and, later, a colorful Mexican fiesta! 

Summer.  Party in Japan, Morocco, and France, in ethnic garb, feasting on tempting local dishes. 

Autumn.  Taste the flavors of Spain in tapas, the wines of Italy, and the spices of India

FAVORITE RECIPES TO PLEASE ALL PALATES

Entertaining for All Seasons includes easy, yet hearty sweet and savory recipes that all family members will love, e.g.:

Cherry Cream Cheese Pie. This one is always at the top of the list of family favorites, and it’s so easy!
Gobblin’ Good Sweet Potatoes.  So rich and delicious, it’s hard to believe how healthy this dish is!
Harvest Muffins. These are chock full of goodies:  carrots, pineapple, walnuts, coconut, and raisins!
Famous Irish Soda Bread.  This soda bread has the best flavor and most tender texture this side of Dublin!
Sun-dried Tomato Spirals.  Goat cheese gives this puff-pastry appetizer great tangy saltiness.
Tri-tip Steak Salad.  Such an easy make-ahead platter!  Guys really go for this one.
Black Forest Cake.  Simpler than European recipes, this one stays moist in the refrigerator.

Entertaining for All Seasons has ideas for using “props” to create beautiful settings that evoke far-away places and beautiful gardens, e.g.,

MAKE HOME A CREATIVE, JOYFUL PLACE

Entertaining for All Seasons is like no other holiday entertaining book. It shows you how to make your house a home, deserving of accolades, like, “There’s no place like home.” 

Entertaining for All Seasons is really five books in one: cookbook, decorating book, gardening book, travel guidebook, and a family memory making book. It’s all rolled into one entertaining book which will teach you how-to:

Create a world of enchantment at home and in the garden on holidays and days in between.

Gain “stage craft” skills: in set decoration, dramatic play, music, film, and art.

Run your own restaurant: set tables and prepare and present food with an international vibe.

Build confidence: give a company party, plan to host Thanksgiving or Christmas at your house this year, and risk having fun giving a “different” kind of event.

Treat your family to fun: “staycations,” holiday parties, garden parties, family projects, and wonderful memories.

The holidays are here! Time to get started. Make it a stand-out celebration with inspiration from Entertaining for All Seasons.
