Cookbook author and TV host Ina Garten starts every day thinking she won’t be able to get everything done. 'Of course I do it by 1 o’clock. But I start the day thinking, 'This is impossible.''
Garten, whose latest cookbook is out this month, says her cooking hasn’t much changed over the past 50 years. “I just like simple food you want to eat at home.”na Garten prefers to look forward, never back. But now that the cookbook author and TV host is working on her first memoir, she’s returned to the patterns of the past that have made her who she is today. “For example, if somebody says no to me, that’s not acceptable,” Garten, 74, says.
Garten was born in Brooklyn and grew up in Stamford, Connecticut. She worked in government and at the White House before starting in the food world when she bought the Barefoot Contessa grocery store in Westhampton Beach, Long Island, in 1978. After selling it in 1996, she started writing cookbooks, as well as hosting hercooking show on the Food Network, becoming known for a signature style that marries simplicity with her chatty tone and traditional, often French dishes.
