(Publishers Weekly Starred review ) --This text refers to the Paperback edition.Product Description
Yearning to be the hostess with the mostest? Desperate to throw a party with aplomb? Agonising over etiquette?
Let Amy Sedaris's guide to entertaining show you how. If you're having a party:
* Try to avoid saying something that could be embarrassing like: 'This is Matt, he's on mood stabilisers.'
*If you see someone boring someone else, just be grateful it's not you.
*When entertaining alcoholics make sure it's a large gathering. This way, until they begin removing their clothes or dangling the cat out of the window they can sort of blend in.
*If you suspect you have a nosey guest, fill you medicine chest with marbles. Nothing announces a nosey guest better than an avalanche of marbles hitting a porcelain sink.

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.

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.
