2.0 out of 5 stars These Celebrations are not for everyday., March 24, 2008
Having a book titled Everyday Celebrations would lead one to believe that it would be ideas that could be done easily, or in a day or simply. Most of these suggestions are neither.
For elegant eggs the suggestions were to fill galvanized pails with bird seed, and nestle blown-out eggs in them. Another idea was to rest one or two robins' eggs in a homemade nest of bright orange embroidery floss. There are no instructions for building this nest made out of orange embroidery floss, no idea how much floss to purchase, or what it should look like.
Another idea was to arrange cupcakes on a platter and decorate with letters cut from purchased refrigerator sugar cookie dough. I'm assuming you'd have to bake the letter cookies although the directions do not state to bake the cookies. Quite unclear.

One of the party ideas was red, white and blueberry breakfast. It calls for making nectarine ginger pancakes, blueberry turkey sausage, blueberry muffins and cherry-blueberry compote with brown sugar mascarpone. The pancakes use grated fresh ginger with juice, and nectarines pitted and diced, top with blueberries and syrup. The turkey sausage involves mixing white meat, dark meat, onions, allspice, blueberries, etc making your own patties and cooking. There were no decorating suggestions for this party.
Another suggestion for decorating was to use a gourd for a doorstop, splitting walnuts in half, removing the nut and then filling each half with salt and one with pepper and using on the table. I guess you'd serve with your fingers (?).

I did give it 2 stars because the photography is excellent, it's a beautiful cookbook just the ideas are not very practical.
