I've Lived In The Hamptons Since 1978,

One Of The Great Gifts That You Can Give People Is To Cook For Them.

It's So Important That You Don't Put The Stuffing In The Bird, Where In Order For The Stuffing To Get Cooked You Have To Overcook The Turkey. It's Better To Do It On The Side.

In The Summer You Want Fresh, Light And Sort Of Quick Things; In Winter You Want Things That Are Comforting, So Your Body Really Tells You You Want To Go Towards Potatoes, Apples, Fennel, Things That Are Warm And Comforting. And Loin Of Pork.

I Think The Best Shortcut Is To Choose Really Simple Recipes. Because I Think You Can Make Simple Recipes That Are As Delicious As Complicated Ones.
