First and foremost, my mom. But, Food Network gave me the "you can do it" push into my own kitchen.

Hannah, I'm really enjoying your column. I've never worked in a restaurant, but have always wanted to. Don't know if it'll ever happen, but I sure love reading about it!

What's on your "Bucket List"?

Philly cheesesteaks and the French Laundry top my U.S. list.

I'd also love to go back to France and Italy with no budget and try out their fine dining experiences. Though I'm sure I'd still buy the pizza, gelato, and pastries from random cafes anyway.

Actually, I am not a cook! My mother made wonderful meals, but I have never had much interest in cooking. My husband enjoys cooking and He would enjoy Anna's cookbook that is filled with elegant, no-fuss meals! My mother-in-law can put together a great meal in minutes using what is on hand. She is definitely my husband's mentor. Please enter us in your cookbook drawing. Many thanks, Cindi

What's on your "Bucket List"?

To try every pizzeria in NYC--even the bad ones. To go to every region in Italy and sample its specialty. To grow really awesome, huge (relatively speaking) San Marzanos.
