Whether it’s the googly-eyed peanuts or the braided hair door handles, Amy Sedaris shares her well-honed hospitality skills in I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence.
Need to know the best way to usher you and your girlfriends into a proper Ladies’ Night? You’ve got to get the right wig, apparently, so there’s a chart included. Or maybe how to appropriately entertain the elderly? Study her suggestions; they’re tried and true. For instance, on the geriatric menu, don’t forget “three gin-soaked raisins. This is good to have every day because it helps with arthritis.”
With my love of sweets, I enjoyed the “Cavity-Hole” chapter. Here are hilarious ideas to brighten up any celebration. From the Band-Aid shaped “We Can Fix It” cake to a “Happy Coming Out” cake, Amy Sedaris presents such an amusing mixture of comedy and her culturally aware insights to produce this handbook of sorts. The “Gift-Giving” chapter is also fun; a topic she expounds upon in her latest book Simple Times: Crafts for Poor People. These books are straight funny! Check them out!
