Holiday Collection: Martha's Homemade Holidays (DVD) — The Martha Stewart Holiday Collection: Homemade Holidays is all about the art of making food and decorating for the Christmas or Hanukkah season. Woe be to anyone who views the four very diverse and remarkable Christmas dinner dishes here on an empty stomach: nothing will taste nearly as exciting. British chef Anne Willan drops by Stewart's kitchen to make a hearty, standing rib roast with accompanying Yorkshire pudding — foods she grew up eating in the farm country north of York. Chef Mario Batali, an expert on foods of Southern Italy, does two segments, one resulting in a fantastic seafood salad (with lobster, calamari, mussels, peppers, and more) and the other an impossibly beautiful baccala ravioli, using fresh-made pasta pillows filled with a mix of baccala and riced potatoes, tossed in Batali's red sauce with a hint of mint. Finally, chef Dan Silverman demonstrates how to remove pomegranate seeds from the fruit without too much hassle, and then add those seeds to an astonishing duck dish.

Playful and dazzling desserts include meringue mushrooms, which look just like the real thing, and a Birch de Noel made of chocolate and cream, laid out like a Yuletide log. Household decorating hints are both clever and simple, including the strategic placing of colorful bowls of fruits and candies on shelves, and the embellishing of homemade wreaths with colorful balls (small, pink ones from Japan are oddly magical), candy, and popcorn. A section on Hanukkah gifts and foods includes a nice idea for filling embossed bags with candies, and a variation on traditional potato pancakes that includes adding strips of carrots and parsnips. Suggestions for making gifts and wrapping round out this very pleasant disc. Run Time: 180 minutes.

Holiday Collection: Martha's Classic Thanksgiving (DVD) — The Martha Stewart Holiday Collection: Martha's Classic Thanksgiving is a most pleasant and entertaining way to find inspiration for a Thanksgiving less ordinary. Taken from past episodes of Stewart's television programs, Classic Thanksgiving presents five ways to cook a turkey, beginning with "Turkey 101," in which Martha prepares a fairly traditional meal while revealing the story of her Thanksgiving from Hell. (Her soon-to-be-ex-husband set the oven on broil and inserted the soon-to-be-unrecognizable bird.) Other shows focus on a rotisserie-baked turkey, a deep-fried turkey (with Creole spices), a boned, broiled, and rolled turkey (very nifty), and most provocative of all, a "black-lacquered" turkey, in which one of Stewart's bankers — who knows exactly two dinner recipes and is so naive in the kitchen she calls a grater a "scraping thing" — demonstrates how a turkey browns beautifully beneath a paste of yummy ingredients that blacken in the heat.

Also on the disc are guides for making several fantastic stuffing dishes, the most dazzling of all a pumpkin challah bread stuffing and a fruit-and-nut stuffing recipe that begins with the soaking of apricots and prunes in bourbon — and just gets better from there. Side dishes include a mouth-watering garlic-horseradish mashed potato dish, and the fascinating "Native American Succotash," a brilliantly colored dish that requires little but veggies themselves. As for desserts: the rustic apple tarts are spectacular and look easy to make in Stewart's kitchen, but the cranberry-pistachio biscotti could be enough to make a grown man weep. There are sections, too, on settings and centerpieces (the gourd candle holders sound silly but look great) as well as kids' crafts. Fun to watch, learn from, or just dream by. Run Time: 210 minutes.

Holiday Collection: Martha's Halloween Ideas (DVD) — October is Halloween and Martha Stewart shows you how to create ghoulishly fun treats for the whole family to enjoy.

Holiday Collection: Martha Stewart Holiday Gift Set (DVD) — The Martha Stewart Holiday Collection Gift Set includes the two DVDs described above, as well as Martha's New Year Celebration, which has loads of fun with appetizers, including a shrimp cocktail made simply and with good ingredients, and an antipasto platter that could feed a small army. The grilled curried shrimp looks irresistible, and there's a helpful chapter on bar snacks, including how to make fabulous-looking pretzel sticks with varied toppings. The "Party Drinks and Cocktails" section includes essential info on chilling champagne, but Martha also delights in concocting White Cosmopolitans (white cranberry juice and ice-cold vodka), Passion Fruit Champagne (pour the bubbly right over a spoonful of the fruit's pulp), and Snakebites (hard cider and ale). Lots of party fun for the whole family, including a confetti trick sure to delight, newspaper party hats, kids' bubble-jumping (a likely hit), and balloon decorating.
