BE READY WHEN THE LUCK HAPPENS A Memoir

Ina Garten narrates with the same precision, charm, poise, and irreverence exhibited on her "Barefoot Contessa" television productions. That same independent woman people know from her food preparation shows on Food Network spins quite the tale. Her philosophy has been to make quick decisions and "dive in"--figuring it all out later. Raised by exceptionally strict parents, she longed for a loving family. Aspects of that need were filled by her husband, Jeffrey Garten, who is an economist and professor. Garten's narration is measured, personal, and absorbing. This is a memoir not to miss if you enjoy Ina Garten, food, and restaurants--or if you simply want to be ready to apply your special talents when the luck happens to you.
