"Home & Family" Cast Reminiscing
Before its reincarnation this year with Mark as her co-host, Cristina was partnered with actor/comedian Michael Burger for the show's original series run from 1996-1998. On today's season finale, the original hosts and family members reunite to reminisce about the good ol' days and update us on what they've been doing since wrapping 15 years ago. Plus, we open the "Home & Family" vault to show you vintage footage from way back when.

Chef Jamie Gwen
Chef
Jamie Gwen puts together three of her summertime entertaining favorites. As a starter, she drizzles vanilla paste and white balsamic on fresh stone fruit such as apricots. After grilling, it comes out caramelized, and she adds burrata cheese and prosciutto atop a wild arugula salad to complete the dish. Jamie also uses a mandolin to thinly shred strips of zucchini. Then, she suggests washing the meal down with her refreshing summer sunset martini and teaches us a grenadine pouring technique to create a layered effect.
