Entertaining thoughts
Our Special Section in this issue is For Your Entertainment. What does that mean? The word “entertainment” can imply many different things. Let’s take a moment and examine what it means to entertain and to be entertained.
At this time of year, as the holidays approach, entertaining often connotes hosting some kind of family and friends get-together for dining and celebration. If that’s what entertaining means to you, you’ll love the For Your Table articles in this issue, with ideas for gorgeous grazing tables, warming cocktails and scrumptious green bean recipes, plus more recipes in the Farm to Table section.
For the purposes of this issue’s Special Section, entertainment means media, be it books, video games or movies. If that matches your idea of entertainment, start with the cover story on James Patterson, one of the most prolific bestselling writers of our time, and continue on with articles on Pulitzer Prize–winning author Stacy Schiff, actor-turned-memoirist Matthew Perry and perennial favorite Janet Evanovich. We also offer ideas on how to start your own book club and host your own outdoor movies. And, in this month’s Buying Smart, Will Fifield explains the lengths Costco goes to in order to bring the best television values to our members.
Speaking of value, don’t miss our annual Holiday Gift Guide in this issue, which is packed with items across all departments, including food, toys, jewelry, clothing, electronics, gadgets, games and so much more.
Saving money for the holidays? Now that’s an entertaining idea!
