Domestic
Bliss: Playing Hostess
Having a good
time, that's what it's really all about. Entertaining is about creating
as well as enjoying a good time, about making special memories
for you and your friends and guests. Gathering friends and family at
your place to enjoy good food and good company sounds so appealing,
but the idea of planning the party, cleaning the house, making the
food, and playing hostess seems so stressful and time-consuming.
Pulling off an enjoyable party is something to be proud of. You
should feel good that you can plan, organize, and execute a
successful event, that you can entertain in your own inimitable
style. Read an excerpt from the book Domestic Bliss: Simple Ways
to Add Style to Your Life by Rita Konig
