Perfectly Inspirational

This book explains the how-tos and wherefores of party-giving so straightforwardly and inspirationally you're bound to be a smashing host / hostess, no matter what your level of expertise. Must arrange a cocktail party? A dinner do? A supper buffet? Perhaps you're in an al fresco picnicking mood, or have the yen for a garden fete. Not to worry, it's a snap. Everything's in here, explained in plain English and gorgeous photographs: decor and plans and food and more. Included is a helpful timeline / checklist for your more involved parties, which removes all doubt as to when to book the venue (6 to 12 months ahead of time), clean the silver (5 days ahead of time), and uncork the wine (2 hours before your guests arrive), plus all the nitty gritty in between. Get hold of this book, browse it through, then phone up friends and throw a bash! Forward by Sir Elton John (what doesn't that man do?)
