Customer Reviews

Great for Taste of Home Entertaining

In a time when people are entertaining in their own home more and more this is a great reference to have at hand. I purchased it when I joined Taste of Home Entertaining as a consultant. And now as I recruit new consultants and hold parties I can use books like this as consultant and hostess gifts. The recipes are mostly simple using ingredients that you can easily find in your grocery store.

Home Entertaining

For the person who likes to entertain, this book is great. Home Entertaining is a great way to meet people and build relationships. There is actually a new party plan company call Taste of Home Entertaining that launches in May. As a person who likes to entertain and make money, this is a great way to combine the two hobbies and get into the company at the ground level. http://www.hometeamsite.com/join/jfrieson Jenna

Planning parties from showers to formal dinners made easier

As one of the recipe testers, I really enjoyed being a part of putting this wonderful cookbook together. My friends loved receiving it as a gift and my mother even though she doesn't have big parties or dinners anymore enjoys sharing this cookbook with her friends. One of the things I like about it the most, is the many seafood recipes offered.

Jorj Mrogan has done it again!

Kudos to Jorj Morgan, she has done it again! In the logical and splendid follow-up to "At Home in the Kitchen," she captures the essence of entertaining in your home. From an intimate dinner for two to a house warming party for 100, Jorj guides the reader, whether a seasoned hostess or novice through the party planning process. Her tips on everything from the recipe to details such as decor are not only marvelous, but are realstic as well. It is refreshing to read a book on entertaining that does not talk down to the reader or expect us to have a bee hive in our backyard from which to extract the honey needed for a recipe! It is well researched and written. I am convinced that if Jorj doesn't know something about throwing a party, she could make it up in a pinch and it would be perfect!! In these times when we just want to stay home and be with friends, this is the perfect primer!!

Fun and Easy Party Plans

At Home Entertaining makes throwing a party easy. Not only does Jorj have party menus, recipes and shortcuts in the book but she also offers shopping lists to print out on her web site. The book helps take all the tedious planning out of your next party. It's a keeper!
