You know, I didn't think anybody would want to watch me cook on TV, actually. Food Network kindly made me an offer, and I kept saying no, and they kept coming back. And there was someone there, Eileen Opetut, who just kept saying no. make me a better offer. And I kept saying to her, no, I just don't want to do this. And she just kept coming back.

And finally, I had heard about a show that somebody said was a really good cooking show. And it was Nigella Lawson's show. And unbeknownst to me, they went to London, found her producer, told me that they were coming to East Hampton on like in two weeks. And I was like, whoa, whoa. I said I wasn't going to do this. And Eileen said, just do 13 shows, thinking how hard could that be?

I want to keep doing that.
