Local author Babs Horner and her sister Susan Palma have created a very funny parody of the sophiticated life.
Leave your preconceptions at the door, this is a coffee table
book with a twist and one you'll actually use! In Sophistication Is Overrated,
you'll find delicious recipes as well as tips and tricks for truly
unforgettable, and ridiculous, entertaining. Written by Babs Horner, a gourmet
caterer, and her sister Susan Palma, an interior decorator better known as the
Slageter sisters the book is a testimony to both refinement and fun. In it, you
can learn to make your party "So Chic" with elegant crafts and decor, or go "So
Slageter" with rubber chickens, wacky costumes, blow-up dolls and a healthy dose
of humor. Whether you're planning an anniversary, Mardi Gras, or a child's
birthday, Babs and Susan know how to bring the goods. At the heart of all the
shenanigans, however, are Babs's gourmet recipes, which are big on flavor, light
on butter, and sure to please at any occasion. Along with these, you'll find
unique arrangement insights from Susan and her years of decorating experience.
So stick your tongue firmly in your cheek and learn to entertain the Slageter
way: with humor, heart, and above all, delicious food.
Check out their fun website.
