Customer Reviews

A great how-to guide on a whole bunch of topics!

Guys will like this book too! Lots ofuseful info, from how to carve a turkey to how to sellyour car to how to prevent jet lag. The authors haveboiled down the instructions into a few easy, simplesteps.

Just don't leave it in the bathroom...

...or you'll never get your friends out of there. I made that mistake at a recent "girls' night," and my friends couldn't stop reading it! So I thought I would share the news that this book is not only cute and fun, but very handy as well!

Perfect Shower Gift!

A hip guide to how to do, well, practically everything! The perfect combination of fun-to-read writing and actual, practical advice. An awesome gift for graduation, a shower, a new apartment, etc. I keep it out around my apartment, and always find my friends flipping through, saying "Oh, THAT's how you do that..."

Fun Gift

I passed it out at a shower over the weekend to my girlfriends and they loved it! Good practical stuff as well as some fun suprises. My great aunt also chuckled over the topics.

The best gift for a friend or yourself!

I found this adorable, helpful book while browsing for a gift for a newly-single friend, and I found myself reading it every time I went to her house. Of course, I ended up buying it for myself--it has incredibly useful instructions for little chores you wish you knew how to do, from entertaining (choosing wine, setting a table, cooking an artichoke) to cosmetics (trimming your own bangs, tweezing your eyebrows) to safety.
