Playing Host Martha Style – Not
I had a good laugh yesterday reading this post from Manolo for the Home. The post refers to houseguests, but I’ll extend the advice to all aspects of life. Please, don’t be a Martha. Be yourself. Find your own style and be proud of it. Every fool knows that empty cat food tins can make a very decorative statement. :-)
“I am currently hosting houseguests in the form of my MIL and one of The Beard‚Äôs cousins. I‚Äôm sad to say that other than cleaning the house and giving up my bed, I did nothing to make them feel welcome.
I did not pull a Martha Stewart and stock a chair with water bottles, roses, and a basket o‚Äô towels.

What else did I not to that Martha Stewart Living (which I only get because they canceled Blueprint) tells me I ought to do?”
