Be Ready When the Luck Happens: A Memoir

Ina seems like a delightful person. I think I would have enjoyed this even more by listening to the audiobook But her personality shines through, regardless. I do want to try some of her recipes. I used to work for someone like Ina. The type that runs through the open door, then figures out where to go next. I am the opposite. Researching and weighing options to the nth degree before making life-changing decisions. I guess that’s why Ina is saying to be ready, and that it was truly her guiding trait. Very happy for her success. And I must say, Jeffrey seems like a living doll. What an amazing partner to have on her side, even when she doubted themselves as a couple, or doubted her own pathway. He literally bent over backwards for her. What a sweetheart.

Very interesting read.

Loved this book about Inas life. So interesting how she seized opportunities her way.

A memoir written by the renowned chef, Ina Garten. Ina tells her life story in an entertaining, thoughtful manner. Her career development is a fascinating story. Loved the book!

Loved this memoir. I laughed a lot and smiled the whole time I was reading. I loved how open Ina was about her “luck” and hard work and really enjoyed learning more about her life. We had the Coconut cake (cupcakes) and look forward to trying more of her recipes.
