“No one tells a story like Mary Giuliani, and she does it with great recipes, too! To read her deeply personal memoir is to feel that you've connected with a dear friend who's thoughtful, funny, and truly unique.” —Ina Garten
A hilarious, touching, and mouthwatering memoir from caterer to the stars Mary Giuliani, weaving together her one-of-a-kind memories from her life in the culinary industry and her personal journey as a woman and mother—through which she never lost her love for everyone's favorite party food, pigs in a blanket.
Throughout Mary's utterly unremarkable childhood on Long Island, all she wanted was to fit in (be Jewish) and become famous (specifically a cast member on Saturday Night Live). Instead, she accidentally landed what she now refers to as "the breakthrough role of a lifetime": catering glamorous events for a glittery list of stars she once hoped to be part of herself.
Fresh, personal, and full of Mary's humorous, self-deprecating, and can-do attitude against all odds, this page-turning memoir follows every shiny silver tray of hors d'oeuvres to adventures Mary could have never imagined. You never know when the humble hot dog will be a crucial ingredient in the recipe for success, in building a business or simply making life more delicious.

Mary makes me smile, laugh, cry happy tears, and she always leaves me hungry for more of her wisdom, her humor, and her stories. I raise my glass in a toast to the hostess with the mostest to celebrate this, her most personal, touching, and delicious work yet!"-Rachael Ray
