FROM DUST-JACKET:
THE ART OF SERVING FOOD ATTRACTIVELY is not only a fine handbook for the hostess who desires to please her weekly bridge club or ladies’ aid group, but also for the homemaker who enjoys serving attractive meals to her family.
Written by a woman who has had wide experience in the field of home economics, THE ART OF SERVING FOOD ATTRACTIVELY begins with the general rules for garnishing - the do’s and don’t - and then goes on to give complete, easy-to-follow instructions for every suitable garnish for every type of food: appetizers, beverages, breads, cakes and cookies, desserts, fish, meats, pies, pastry, salads, sandwiches, soups - with a special chapter on decorating trays and food to tempt the tired palate of the invalid and plate and platter arrangements.
Author Mary Albert Wenker is past director of Home Economics at Mount Mary College in Milwaukee and now devotes all of her time to writing. She has done experimental work in foods and has worked closely with state and national home economics associations. Her articles have appeared in national magazines devoted to home economics. She holds degrees from De Paul University, Simmons College, and Columbia University, and she has done graduate work at Marquette Medical School.

These books/items are not new unless specified new … they are retro or vintage, and some may come with wear and/or smells. I go to extremes, perhaps, detailing each item attributes and flaws, if any. And I especially include SMOKE and PET clauses in all descriptions, so please don't email me asking if it smells of smoke because you may be able to smell better than I do.

Please do not use my description to sell your book. It takes me hours, sometimes, to describe and list names/recipes/contents so you'll know exactly what you're buying.
