The doorbell rings—it's show time! Stop blubbering into your apron, down that glass of red, and drag yourself to the door to greet your guests with a smile. You, the Rebel Cook, the one with two left spoons, will lead the evening's expedition. By midnight, with any luck, your guests will be so beguiled by the dècor, the music, and the clever conversation that they won't have a free moment to stop and consider the limitations of the meal. Become a Rebel Cook: a non-cooking host or hostess with so many devious tricks hiding under the dinner plates that your innocent guests will have a great time, regardless of what you have done to the food. This is not a cookbook! Think of it as a cheat sheet for the culinary clueless or a survival guide for the hopelessly inept and fearlessly hospitable. It is a call to arms for all of you, who, like the author, are terrified of hosting a dinner party. Author Linda Kupecek offers her secrets to a successful soirèe—from the clueless to the clueless with love. Rebel in the kitchen and join the author as she stuns, terrifies, and stops clocks with what she presents at table, yet continues bravely to entertain. She calls and they come—like lemmings.
