Miss TVC welcomes you to her presentation of SEASONAL Recipes and ENTERTAINING Hints:

• The perfectly balanced Guest List
• Yes, you can please all of the people all of time!
• Be envied for your dinner parties.
• Make your pool party the most fun event of the summer.
• Timing, Timing, Timing!
• Guests will look forward to your annual affair(s).
• Holiday Decorating.

NOTE: Children's birthdays, office parties and impromptu gatherings will NOT be discussed here. They take no more planning than how much to spend and what to serve. This site, updated seasonally, is for the SERIOUS host or hostess!
