Today I am all about the Barefoot Contessa. The other day I was watching the food network "easy listening television" and Mrs. Ina Garten came on. She is my favorite; I love her. Like, she is in my top 5 people I would want to be. Love her, her house (inside & out), her kitchen, her cooking pots, and I especially love her lamps on her kitchen island. She is basically, to me, a badass. With all of that being said, I am featuring a couple of her recipes today on the blog. These recipes below, like Lindsay, make me yearn for spring. These are great recipes for a spring evening in your backyard.....
