Gwyneth Paltrow is a global symbol of style and good taste as an actress, author, trendsetter, developer of goop.com, and host of the famous PBS series Spain: On the Road Again. She acquired a liking for food while dining and cooking with her father, Bruce Paltrow, as a child, which has affected how she lives today and solidified her opinion that spending time with family is important. Paltrow now offers her favorite family recipes as well as personal anecdotes about growing up with her father, Bruce Paltrow, in her new book, My Father's Daughter. She talks about how he has affected her taste in food, how she cooks with her kids, and how she mixes healthy eating with handmade indulgences. Paltrow also gives an insight into her life as a daughter, mother, and wife, giving her ideas on the significance of family and togetherness for the first time.
