Taylor Swift Claims That Ina Garten Taught Her To View Cooking As A Form Of Self-Care Rather Than A Chore.

Taylor Swift wrote a touching tribute to Ina Garten for the cover of Food Network magazine, which was published on Wednesday.

“I’ve been lucky enough to meet Ina a few times and get to know the magnificent woman behind the TV show and the cookbooks,” the superstar wrote of the chef, otherwise known as the Barefoot Contessa, adding, “She’s one of those people who is even better, funnier, warmer than you’d hoped her to be.

“My most vivid memories of Ina are from the first time I saw her TV show,” Swift continued. “I was in my twenties at the time, and my life revolved around touring.” I rarely cooked on my rare days off at home because it always felt like a chore. Observing Ina prepare a meal shifted my perspective on cooking and reframed it as a relaxing activity. Cooking became a form of self-care for her. Cooking has always been my stress reliever and one of the few ways I can truly relax on a bad day. I’ll be eternally grateful to her for that.”

Other famous faces who reminisced about Garten’s impact for the story included Julianna Margulies, Tina Fey, Nathan Lane, Katie Couric, Jennifer Garner and fellow Food Network personality Bobby Flay.

Swift is currently gearing up for the release of her landmark 10th studio album Midnights, which will drop, appropriately, at midnight on Friday (Oct. 21). She’s been teasing lyrics from the studio set’s 13 tracks in major cities like New York, London, Nashville, and So Paulo in the run-up to its release. She also used the rollout campaign to encourage her fans to vote in the upcoming national midterm elections in 2022.
