The Oprah Podcast · Oprah and Ina Garten Share the Secrets to a Successful Life · 24 Dec 2024 podcast

I really like that. I also like having things that are not work that are creative that I do. So I love working on the garden. I'm not in the garden myself, but designing what the garden's going to be. I always have some kind of construction project, renovating the house or building something.

I just like to feel that I have a life outside work that's creative as well as having a creative work life.

I think writing the book has really made me realize this. Yeah. I think the thing that we can do is matter to each other, is that my work matters to other people. And it can be as simple as I've given somebody a recipe for a coconut cake and they've made it for their family. And their family goes, you made this yourself? Yes.

So it makes me feel like what I've done, I've given them something that makes them feel good. And that matters to me. And the thing about mattering, which a very good friend of mine, Jenny Wallace, talks about mattering and she's writing about it, is that it's so actionable that we can do things that make other people feel they matter to us. And that makes them feel good and vice versa.

And it's as simple as bringing a pot of chicken soup to a friend who's sick. You're saying to that person, you matter to me. And that makes them feel good and it makes you feel good. And I feel like my books have mattered to people. And the TV show, so many people said I taught them how to cook, which is just amazing to me. I did it because I thought it would be fun to do, but

To have that as the legacy of it is just fabulous. Yes. And I think that really is everybody's legacy is, did my work matter to people? Yes. As yours obviously has done for decades.

What matters to me is taking care of people and that I give people the tools to take care of other people. I think we just need to stay connected. I think the world is very stressful. And I think the more we can create a community around ourselves and take care of the people around us, the more we can deal with the difficulties.

And I think cooking brings people together and it makes us feel good about ourselves. And it's not about being with people that love us. It's about being with people that we feel love for. And we can do that with cooking.

Do the work. I think a lot of people say, how can I have a show on Food Network? Well, you know what? Bobby Flay said to somebody, first you have to wash the dishes in the kitchen and then you have to learn how to chop vegetables. And then maybe you go to culinary school and You need to do the work. You can't just go directly to a show on Food Network.

You need the experience and the knowledge and the information that you can share with others.

For years.

I thought, who wants to watch me cook on TV? I guess I was wrong.

Oprah, thank you. I'm just such a joy to be with you.

Wiser Than Me with Julia Louis-Dreyfus · Presenting: Julia on Be My Guest with Ina Garten · 30 Nov 2024 podcast

I'm Ina Garten. I love to invite interesting people to my house for good food, great conversation, and lots of fun. The incredible 11-time Emmy Award-winning actor, comedian, and producer Julia Louis-Dreyfus is coming to the barn. We're sharing a French omelet.

And I have the big hat.

Talking life, love, and laughs.

Then we're fooling around with frosting.

Making an amazing chocolate cake. And I'd better watch out. It looks good. I'm here to take over. Be my guest. What? Julia's moved in. My guest is Julia Louis-Dreyfus. I mean, who doesn't love her? So I know she likes eggs and I know she likes bacon, so I'm gonna make her my French country omelet. And it starts with four slices of bacon that I've cooked until crisp.

I'm just gonna take them out and put them on a plate. And then what I'm gonna do, in the little bit of fat that's left, I'm gonna cook some potatoes. I mean, who wouldn't like that? Eggs, potatoes, bacon, yum. This actually comes from a recipe from a bistro in Paris that I love. Okay, lots of salt and pepper.

And that's gonna cook for about eight to 10 minutes until the potatoes are crispy on the outside and tender. And while they cook, Let me tell you about my insanely talented and beloved guest. Julia Louis-Dreyfus, the incredible actor, comedian, and producer, is one of the greatest performers in TV history, winning 11 Emmys.
