Product Description

Review

'Practical and hilarious'

(Publishers Weekly Starred review )

'Her off-the-wall entertaining techniques can now be yours...Each situation is handled with an aplomb that can only come from a lifetime of hostessing...Though the lifestyle elements that run through the book may bring to mind a more whimsical cousin of Martha Stewart, Sedaris in action is actually more reminiscent of Julia Child, with directions and details that are refreshingly candid.'

(New York Post )

'The times call for a heroine, someone to lift us above the malaise, who can inspire us by daring to live a life worth emulating. The times call for a modern-day Marie Antoinette...To take up her queenly mantle, may we suggest Amy Sedaris.'

(News and Observer, New York )


Product Description

The point of entertaining is to receive maximum applause for minimum effort. Hey, you can even make a little money on the side by combining a buffet lunch with a sale of your unwanted goods.  

I LIKE YOU offers advice for dealing with different social groups, catering for alcoholics and providing for the unexpected visit, along with prize-winning jackpot recipes and tips for being a good guest.

Complete with ideas for decorating your house and yourself, this book is destined to cause a nationwide renaissance in theme parties. Whether you’re navigating a blind date or a children’s party, with this book as your guide, you’ll be crowned the hostess with the mostest.

5.0 out of 5 stars Courtesy of Teens Read Too, 23 Dec 2006
By TeensReadToo "Eat. Drink. Read. Be Merrier." (All Over the US & Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence (Hardcover)
I LIKE YOU isn't a children's book. In fact, unless your parents say you can read it, or you're at least sixteen, I wouldn't recommend it. But if you're a mature teenager who enjoys off-beat humor mixed in with recipes, entertaining tips, and a hodgepodge of other "homey" ideas, then this is the book for you.

"Hello, and I like you." According to Ms. Sedaris, this is what you're saying every time you invite someone into your house. Unfortunately, I had originally thought that when I invited people into my house I was saying, "Hello, sorry my house looks like bohemian children with outrageous hobbies live here." But, whatever. Amy Sedaris, whom you might recognize from roles in School of Rock, Bewitched, Elf, and Strangers With Candy, has given us a slew of ideas, recipes, and helpful
hints for entertaining those people we invite into our home.

This over-sized tome is chock full of recipes, from the hors d'oeuvres to the main course to dessert. Mixed in, of course, are witty comments from Ms. Sedaris herself, hilarious photos, and tips on keeping that party spirit alive. If you want to give the perfect gift, for any occasion, to someone you love, show them you like them by handing them a copy of I LIKE YOU. Believe me, everyone will be happy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilaaaaarious., 14 Sep 2007
By Filliam H. Muffman (Northern Ireland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence (Hardcover)
Amy Sedaris didn't want to write a comedy cook-book, but I laughed my behind off at this. Every page is - well, an eye-opener, shall we say - the recipes are great, too. Look out for "Chicken of the Taverns" and "What's your Beef, Stew?" and the best selection of crafts you'll see this side of a penitentiary.
