In Mind of Summer and Beaches


I must confess. I'm a bit of a fan of the Barefoot Contessa's. Sure she's a bit of a name-dropper and she says fabulous way too often, but I like looking at the pretty sandy beaches in the Hamptons. I like that she uses butter and buttermilk, but not liberally like that crazy lady from the South who practically bathes in anything fatty.

I watched a couple episodes last night while I was cleaning my office and there's definitely a lot of recipes now on my list to try:
+ Lunch in a Box (featuring Lobster Cobb Salad)
+ Working Girl (no, not hooker food … a fancy french ham sandwich)
+ Cooking with Tess (her cookbook author friend who likes healthy food)

Don't ya just love Tivo??

  1. I do love Tivo. Except I have something called DVR. Same thing but won't record shows you don't watch. I too love Barefoot Contessa and Paula Deen.

  2. I need tivo. although i'm afraid I'll watch too much tv. I do love cooking shows, but I suck at cooking. now that I'm on maternity leave i actually cook. i'm 30 and just cooked a pot roast for the first time…i wish someone would have told me how easy it is to do in my 20's!
