Fueled by Shag's stylishly bold graphics and hosted by the inimitable Pink Panther, this witty new book serves up seven party ideas to excite even the most jaded hipster. A Pink Tie Affair finds Panther and guests in formal mode. Après Ski imagines a shindig on the slopes. For more intimate moments there's a cozy Fireside Chat, with romantic possibilities expanding as the crowd shrinks to a Party for Two. A down-home Barbecue lets guests get greasy, but sophistication returns with Cocktails Around the World and Debutante's Debauch, complete with watercress sandwiches and sherry flips. And who could resist a Birthday Party hosted by the Pink One himself? Each swank soiree includes a dozen recipes for cocktails, appetizers, snacks, and buffet foods, as well as suggestions for hostess gifts, party games, and minding one's p's and q's. Bartender Adam Rocke offers chic tips for stocking bar and fridge.
