From Donna Pilato, your Guide to Entertaining
I'm feeling very in-between this week. I'm in-between summer season and back-to-school. I'm in-between motivated to check things off the to-do list, and feeling like goofing off. So this week you have a little bit of everything. I've reviewed some old things and some new things. I'm sharing party advice and asking you to share your stories. Because I bet at least a few of you are in-between too. Have an Entertaining week!

Read more about this feisty book in this week's review.

Share Your Easiest Party Recipes
When you're done reading about "The I Hate to Cook Book", I invite readers to share your own favorite, easy party recipes for those times you hate to cook too!
