Comments: The author puts together 30 party menus, so you can celebrate everything from the harvest, leaf raking, apple picking, All Hallow's Eve, and Guy Fawkes Day, to the first snowfall (must plan carefully), the winter solstice, Sunday dinner, Twelfth Night, a pub crawl, a fireside chat, breakfast in bed, après ski, afternoon tea, etc. Each party includes three or four recipes that are appropriate to the theme. Some are a little exotic; others may be just what you've been looking for.
Perhaps best of all – for those of us who do not live in Florida or Southern California – you can also entertain with foods that are appropriate to the season and at the height of flavor. Folks in Florida and Southern California will like the recipes and the concept. Folks in the frozen north will love them.
