Be Ready When The Luck Happens by Ina Garten

Here, for the first time, Ina Garten presents an intimate, entertaining, and inspiring account of her remarkable journey. Ina’s gift is to make everything look easy, yet all her accomplishments have been the result of hard work, audacious choices, and exquisite attention to detail. Ina brings her past and her process to life in a high-spirited & no-holds-barred memoir that chronicles decades of personal challenges, adventures (and misadventures), and unexpected career twists, all delivered with her signature combination of playfulness and purpose. From a difficult childhood to meeting the love of her life, Jeffrey, & marrying him while still in college, to a boring bureaucratic job in Washington, DC, to answering an ad for a specialty food store in the Hamptons, and from the owner of one Barefoot Contessa shop to the author of bestselling cookbooks and celebrated television host, Ina has blazed her own trail and, in the meantime, taught millions of people how to cook and entertain.
