Well Fed Network

Food Network’s resident Italian food expert, Giada De Laurentiis added another new show to her belt, Giada at Home.  Featuring the popular chef in her own kitchen, with glimpses of family life as her husband, Todd, and baby, Jade, occasionally appear, as well as other family and friends, we’re treated to a different side of Giada.

I will say that although I love Giada and her recipes, it all seems very perfect.  But then so does the life of Barefoot Contessa and a few other stars that shoot from their homes.  Perhaps it is.  That being said, I like the entertaining aspect this show offers.  Once Giada is done making the meal, she sets the table, the theme, the decor, giving small tips along the way.  As table decor is one of the things I struggle with the most when entertaining, I love seeing how she pulls it all together at the end, and aside from Sandra Lee’s tablescapes, most of the other shows don’t offer this.
Check your local scheduling for airtimes, but do check it out.
