I Learned That The Hardest Party To

I Don't Like Sitting At A Table That's Too Large, Where Everyone Is Too Far Apart. That's A Party Killer.

You Can Get Bogged Down In A Recipe That's Got A Lot Of Steps And A Million Ingredients, And It Takes All Day To Make. And Then You Realize, You've Just Got One Dish. For Thanksgiving, You Want An Abundance Of Choices, And So You Want Dishes That You Can Put Together Really Quickly, But That Doesn't Mean Less Flavor.

I Think There Are Two Ways Of Eating, Or Cooking. One Is Restaurant Food And One Is Home Food. I Believe That People Have Started Making Food That Is Easy That You Want To Eat At Home. When You Go Out To A Restaurant, You Want To Be Challenged, You Want To Taste Something New, You Want To Be Excited. But When You Eat At Home, You Want Something That's Delicious And Comforting. I've Always Liked That Kind Of Food - And Frankly, That's Also What I Want To Eat When I Go Out To Restaurants, But Maybe That's Me.

I Always Have Music. I Love It To Be Very Upbeat. When You're Having Drinks, I Like Something Like Cesaria Evora. During Dinner, I Like The Much More Traditional - Old Frank Sinatra And Things Like That.

With More And More Fast Food Available, It Takes An Extra Effort To Cook Delicious, Healthy Meals. I Have Always Been A Proponent Of Simple, Easy Food That Doesn't Take Forever To Cook So You Really Can Eat Well At Home.
