Forget the perfectly pressed linen. Forget the name cards
at every guest's place. Forget the full bar, the four-course
meal, and all the fussy little details that supposedly make
parties divine. Who has the house, the money, or the time to
throw that kind of party, anyway? In Real Life
Entertaining, Jennifer Rubell offers break-the-rules
entertaining ideas and quick, easy, stylish recipes for
last-minute drop-in dinners, sit-down meals, brunches,
buffets, and one-pot meals. Conventional wisdom says it's
rude to invite someone to dinner on the same day. Jennifer's
real life wisdom says it's never rude to invite guests to
your home. The worst that will happen is that they'll be
busy and say no. Conventional wisdom says never serve the
same meal that you offered guests the last time. Jennifer
says if you've got a signature dish, flaunt it!
Jennifer incorporates her relaxed, lively style into a
variety of festive themes, from an evening of red wine and
bruschetta, to a New York-style brunch, to a one-pot meal of
the easiest -- and tastiest! -- meatballs you'll ever make.
The recipes are simple and the ingredients lists are short,
so you can whip up party-friendly fare such as Thai Chicken
Wings, Sesame-Mint Pita Chips, and Grilled Shrimp with
Garlic and Citrus in mere minutes. With Jennifer's
expert party tricks, plus full-color photographs throughout,
Real Life Entertaining is the ultimate go-to party
guide. Jennifer will show you how to get your guests to
pitch in and how to make sure that you have as much fun as
the people you've invited. Never again will you panic at the
prospect of a party.
