July Tip #3 - 12 Favorite Books for Summer Entertaining!



Photo Credit Via

Summer is a great time for entertaining!  I enjoy planning creative menus for family and friends.  I don't like spending hours in the kitchen, so I am always looking for delicious and beautiful menu ideas, which don't take hours to prepare.  Sure anyone can find ideas and recipes online, but there is nothing that compares to holding a book and viewing photos of parties as long as I want.  I wanted to share some of my favorites.   Here are my current top 12 summer entertaining books!
