My Extravagance Is My Garden - It's

I Always Have Music. I Love It To Be Very Upbeat. When You're Having Drinks, I Like Something Like Cesaria Evora. During Dinner, I Like The Much More Traditional - Old Frank Sinatra And Things Like That.

I Use Other Cookbooks For Inspiration. I Must Say I Tend To Cook From My Own Cookbooks For Parties.

They Say That Gardens Look Better When They Are Created By Loving Gardeners Rather Than By Landscapers, Because The Garden Is More Tended To And Cared For. The Same Thing Goes For Cooking. I Only Cook For People I Love.

Never Let 'em See You Sweat. Guests Feel Guilty If They Think You've Worked Too Hard To Make Dinner For Them - Which Of Course You Have!

People Have More Fun If They Don't Eat So Much They Have To Be Taken Home In An Ambulance.
