Starting things off right.

I decided in order to start my blog off right I should start with a tribute to someone who inspires me as a cook. Ina Garten would be that person. If you have seen even one episode of her show you will see she is down to earth and one of the classiest women I know! This coming week (starting Monday) I will be cooking dinner out of Ina's book "Barefoot Contessa: Family Style." I've planned the menu and decided to share it with you:)
