about the book Try A Summer Pot-luck With An International Twist If you want to freshen up an All-American barbeque menu …expand your borders! Ask guests to select a country that they would like to bring a dish from. For the cooks in the group they can make it from scratch, and the non-cooks can order something from a local ethnic restaurant. A way to keep track of who is bringing what from which country, the first person to RSVP gets first dibs on the country of her choice. Most party stores have flag paper goods which can brighten up the theme of your pot-luck. A fun way to involve guests is to have each one share the reasons for selecting the country of their choice. Bon Appétit! Que aproveche! Buono appetito! Goede trek! Приятного аппетита! _____ Maggie's Appearances and Book Signings July Party Whisperer Summer Book Club Party Whisperer San Diego Writers/Editors Guild __________ Bookstores

Introduced
as a lifestyle expert on TV, radio and in print, Maggie always has
a twinkle in her eye because she knows YOU can become a lifestyle
expert too. Lighthearted in spirit and with humor, she relates to
her audience and reminds them what matters most in life is staying
connected.
There is an intimacy and privilege of being invited into someone’s home; it’s that warm feeling of being someone special. Her new book, Food is the Frosting – Company Is The Cake, has 101 useful tips when having friends and family over, plus delicious recipes that can be made 24 hours ahead of time. The book is filled with heart-warming stories and levelheaded advice to reduce the stress and anxiety of entertaining. Maggie was lucky to grow up with parents who entertained more than most. During childhood her father’s physical limitations due to his health made it easier to invite guests over to their home. Without precisely knowing it then, Maggie was “in training” even as a young girl to become a relaxed host. As a natural extension, she later owned her own successful catering business on the shoreline of Connecticut, Catering By Maggie. Her current appearances include teaching and lecturing throughout the United States, often as the keynote. She has the unique ability to get us to slow down and makes it easy to try out new ideas. In addition to her writing and lecturing, Maggie was previously the Director of the Caregiver- to-Caregiver Network for the Southern Caregiver Resource Center in San Diego. The chapter in her book, Honoring Life Events During Suffering, Illness And Loss, is based upon her own life experiences as well as her professional capacity supporting family caregivers. Available for Maggie is available for speaking engagements, keynotes, classes, and book-signings and would appreciate being invited to speak at organizations and groups:
