I just got a sneak peek of Annette Joseph's new book 'Picture Perfect Parties' (Rizzoli 2013).  Not only does she capture the essence of home entertaining, but she has great solutions for entertaining which are clever and stylish. From an intimate dinner for two to a house party for a larger crowd, she gives tips on everything from the recipe to all-you-need-to-know-details which are as useful as they are creative.  

The recipes and menus are focused on seasonal ingredients, and they can be made in advance and portioned individually—a time-management must for every host and hostess.  So excited for Annette's book signing at Room & Board on Tuesday, October 8th from 6-8pm.  Purchase your own copy today! Picture Perfect Parties: Annette Joseph's Stylish Solutions for Entertaining

One chapter that really caught my eye was the one dedicated to Sunday Supper!  At my house, I really focus on Sunday family time making sure that everyone has a great dinner all together before starting another hectic week of work, school, sports........you name it!  

This chapter menu of Sun-Dried Tomato and Olive Bread, Porcini Mushroom Risotto, Hot Garlic Broccoli Rabe, Roasted Chicken and Homemade Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwiches is perfect for an wonderful Autumn dinner!
