A book of customs, lore, and food offers a year's worth of recipes and party-planning suggestions for all occasions honored in the black community, including ideas for an Afro-centric baby shower and a "jump the broom" nuptial feast.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
From the author of A Kwanzaa Celebration (LJ 12/15/95) comes party planning tips, suggestions for celebrations ranging from a Jubilee Dinner Party for Emancipation Day to An Afrocentric Baby Shower, and appropriate menus. Medearis provides simple but useful tips for entertaining, along with interesting historical background on the various holidays. The recipes vary, from Kenyan Chicken with Coconut Milk to the more humdrum Broccoli-Parmesan Noodles. A serious drawback, however, is that not only do the menus not mention number of guests, but often the recipes within a particular menu don't "match" (e.g., the Christmas Pork Loin Roast serves eight, but the accompanying Sesame Asparagus and the Baked Onions each serve only six). For larger collections.
