About the Book

Fed up with the friend who declares squatters' rights over your guestroom?Or the host who "hovers, nags, badgers, frets, interrupts and dashes about pressing unwanted food and drink on you as though convinced she is providing you with your last square meal on earth? (Elsa Maxwell)You can call the cops, throw up your hands and primal scream, or take a breather, sit down with this wonderful little book and LAUGH. Filled with stories anecdotes, quotes, cartoons-hapless to hilarious-coping strategies, and just plain good advice on how to have fun hosting or guesting. For those with a taste for the macabre or outlandish behavior, there are small bites entitled The Wrong Fork, inspired by Yogi Berra's famous quote: When you get to the fork in the road, take it.Entertaining or being entertained on an overnight or weekend is the most intimate experience one can have. Apart from sex of course and we're not going there! Where we do go is Newport, the Cotswolds, a West Virginia coal-mining town, Italy, the banks of the Shannon and the Hudson. Oh, there are rules of thumb too, 101 of them. Plus useful tips, inspirations and easy recipes for a welcoming meal.Enjoy!Companion to the authors' Entertaining Friends: Easy Does It with 101 Rules of Thumb. "This little book on entertainment is more entertaining itself than anything I've lately picked up for pleasure reading. I keep re-ordering as I think of perfect recipients. And I'm surely keeping one handy for ME."
