“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.
