(Click here to read more)

Be sure to watch QVC on Wednesday, August 12 at 9:00 am Eastern/ 8:00 am Central.

I'll be on the program "My Time With Mary Beth" to offer Easy Parties and Wedding Celebrations, a brand-new cookbook written by Patty Roper and published by our company, Quail Ridge Press.

This lovely full-color how-to book on entertaining takes you step by step through hosting a whirlwind season of social events from a poolside brunch or holiday dinner party, to a bridal shower or at-home wedding reception.

Inside are 30 complete party plans with more than 250 recipes, stunning full-color photographs, and easy-to-follow directions for creating striking table decorations, giftwrapping, and party invitations—all made with simple, everyday materials.

Patty Roper is the editor of Mississippi Magazine and authors the popular "Easy Does It' column. She'll be with me at QVC and may get to say hello on the air.

Hope you can tune in and watch!
