From Donna Pilato, your Guide to Entertaining
I can sense the days are growing shorter. Which means we need to stuff as much summer fun as we can into the remaining days this month. Have an Entertaining week!

Plan a Back-to-School Party
Every time I mention the "S" word, my kids scold me for using a dirty word. Camp is ending and there are just a few weeks left to summer, so SCHOOL has been added to the list of the "seven dirty words" and I need to be extra careful not to use it around the children. Of course, the "children" are old enough to have become desensitized to most of the original "seven dirty words" on the bus and, if I used one, I would get a much smaller reaction than I get with the "S" word. If I dare, maybe we can plan a Back-to-School Party to help ease the pain.

A Refreshing Summer Luncheon
This week we continue our easy summer party series with A Refreshing Summer Luncheon. You can find decorating ideas and recipes that will help you keep your cool as you and your guests enjoy a lazy summer weekend afternoon. I promise, you won't have to break a sweat as you prepare this refreshing meal.
