Pure Martha

It's exactly right to call this a film set book. I could never follow the ideas and recipes to a tee but it really IS inspirational and fabulous- she is the original domestic goddess (prior to the insider trading) and this shows what is best about her. Read, enjoy, come back to again and again. Really lovely inspirational ideas.

A Film Set

Paging through this book is a pleasureable experience, even for the 5th time. I keep seeing something new or a new idea is triggered. All the settings are beautifully and thoughtfully done and the recipes are delicious. The homes featured also add to my inspiration for design and style, but most of all I get great ideas for themed parties as well as table settings for dinner parties.

Delicious Recipes and Clever Ideas

As we all know, Martha can be a bit anal when it comes to many things, I have to admit I really like her cookbooks. The recipes are easy to follow and most of the time, tasty. The entertaining ideas are good, however, I've never been able to follow one completely as I simply don't have the time to do it all. Perhaps if I were a wealthy at-home wife I could...but in that case..wouldn't I have someone do it _for_ me?
