Product Description
No one knows better how to give a party than Martha Stewart-and as she proves in this comprehensive and visually dazzling handbook, great parties begin with great hors d'oeuvres. Three hundred all-new recipes, each photographed in full color, show why Martha Stewart is still America's style authority and most trusted party host.
It was fifteen years ago that Martha Stewart first turned her creativity and talent for teaching to this subject, when she defined the look and flavor of party appetizers for professionals and home cooks in Martha Stewart's Hors d'Oeuvres. Since then, America's tastes have evolved and Martha's own approach to food has expanded to encompass flavors from around the world, seasonal ingredients fresh from the garden, and innovative preparations all presented with an unsurpassed eye for beauty.
In this book, after laying out the basic foundations and techniques, Martha presents chapters on different hors d'oeuvre categories that are brimming with new ideas-Layered and Stacked; Wrapped, Rolled, Filled, Folded, and Stuffed; and Skewered and Threaded. Whether a classic cocktail party food reinvigorated with her wit and style-chicken salad tea sandwiches turned on their sides and encrusted with sesame seeds, for example-or deliciously decadent dips for cruditis and seafood updated with Indian dhal or white beans and mustard greens; tiny toasted breadboxes filled with Welsh rarebit; or savory sips of soups in edible cups, these impeccable jewels are as exciting as anything Martha has ever invited her readers to serve on the buffet or tea table or pass among guests.
Reflecting Martha's favorite way to entertain now-informal and relaxed-there is also Bites and Pieces, a chapter packed with simple recipes for parties that please the guests without undoing the host. Marinated olives, spiced and seasoned nuts, handmade cheese crackers, and spicy cocktail ribs can be prepared quickly and easily in advance and arranged before the doorbell rings. Even the drinks have been provided: classic and contemporary cocktails, imaginatively garnished, are accompanied by a guide to stocking the bar and serving champagne.
Everything about Martha Stewart's Hors d'Oeuvres Handbook has been considered to create a book that is easy to use. The size was chosen to comfortably fit in the hand, in the cookbook holder, or on the kitchen counter. Color photographs in the front of the book help cooks select which hors d'oeuvres to combine for their own parties; the cross-referenced recipes in the back have been tested in Martha's own kitchen and in the test kitchens of Martha Stewart Living; and two place-marking ribbons keep track of both picture and recipe. And every detail has been covered-tips on techniques and ingredients, serving ideas, menu suggestions, recipe variations, advice on party planning, and even a glossary of equipment, special ingredients, and supplies, with a guide to finding them. With its range of recipes, its wealth of ideas, its lavish photography, and its innovative format, Martha Stewart's Hors d'Oeuvres Handbook is simply the most instructive, inspirational, and indispensable guide to hors d'oeuvres ever compiled.
• History Does Repeat Itself
Girls, I think the real meat of day's reading lies within the Easu/birthright part of the story. I will camp out there in few minutes. I first need to say couple things.First, is there any echo in the house? Can you believe that Issac lied about Rebekah to Abimelech just like Abraham did? I must say, Sarah and Rebekah must have been real "babes" for both of these men to be so concerned about their lives that they had to lie about whether or not they were married. I wonder if Abraham ever to
• Vintage Valentine
Theme Thursday's challenge this week is to make vintage valentines. Here's mine: The dog and cat are unmounteds from StampFrancisco, stamped with black VersaFine onto plaid patterned paper, and the valentine sentiment is from the dollar bin at Michael's. I penned the dots and the 'love' with a black micron pen, and crafted the lace border with one of Martha Stewart's lace border punches. The script background paper is from Pink Petticoat's newest valentine collection. It's way past my

Despite my oft-referred-to affinity for scrappiness and across-the-board malarkey, I am a surprisingly tidy person. Howevs, my own approach to organization could best be described as "restrained chaos", or possibly, "an obvious manifestation of undiagnosed obsessive-compulsive disorder". The majority of my organizational tendencies rest along the lines of, say, reserving individual

One post I've been meaning to write for a long time is a list of links to my favorite free craft tutorials floating around the Web. I might still get to it, but really, truly, The Princess & The Monkey has the most thorough list I've seen. I'm so grateful for being included on her roundup months ago for my tissue-paper carnation tutorial and appreciate all the hits that have come my way since then. Here are a few of my favorites from her list: Laptop sleeve by Nicole Mallalieu Drawstr

After a 30 year career on radio in markets from New York to San Francisco to satellite and network, David H. Lawrence XVII decided to make a change. He hung up his headphones and retired from hosting 3 network/satellite radio shows to head to Los Angeles, to concentrate solely on acting in front of the camera.
Lili VonSchtupp* needed a fresh start. She moved to Washington DC and got her dream job. "I did affiliate relations for Online Tonight with David Lawrence. I slowly worked my way into the producer's chair by impressing David with my assets. (not those assets), my ability to make a CAT5 cable Ethernet cable, type (those of you in the chat room-shut up!) and work a phone system.
