barefoot contessa in chicago!

when i was living in chicago, my telly was almost always glued to the ultimate channel for foodies - the food network channel. so much so that i was could have been a walking channel guide for the food network, listing down the programs effortlessly especially when it comes to my favorite celebrity chefs. 

the queen of easy entertaining dining with fresh quality ingredients that can be easily transformed into gourmet dishes at home, ina garten is also known as the barefoot contessa -- the namesake of her gourmet food store where she started her culinary career. it is so inspiring to learn how she became such an icon in the culinary world fuelled by her evident passion for food and fresh ingredients despite not having any formal training.

i love her back to basics approach but never skimping on flavors. and her huge herb garden of abundant varieties, which i hope to grow when i get a place of my own.
