Bring a bottle of olive oil and some Parmesan! Ina's Italian importer friend is coming to dinner and she's making an Italian feast. Tuscan white bean soup, herbed roast leg of lamb, roasted fennel and summer fruits with vanilla mascapone.

Ina shares all her catering secrets when she hosts a book party for a friend. Cheddar cheese a chutney brioche, Tuna tartare, smoked salmon tea sandwiches and cup cakes decorated with pansies. There will be no hungry guests and time to enjoy the party.
