Reese Witherspoonis working towards making healthier choices in 2022. ButIna Garten? She’s keeping it real.
On Instagram on Monday, theBarefoot Contessastar commented on a post of Witherspoon’s in which the actress had laid out some changes she was making in the new year.
“Let’s talk about habits!” Witherspoon, 45, wrote in the caption. “Are there any that have improved your daily life? Here are some I’m working towards:
It was a nice idea, but Garten, 73, was being a little more practical. “To quote Reese Witherspoon, that sounds great but I’m probably not doing any of those things!” she commented. “LOL!!”
She then went on to lay out her “formula,” which she said “is easier to follow”:
“In a pandemic, I do what I can,” Garten said.
Fans of Garten shouldn’t be surprised that she suggests drinking more large cosmos.
The Food Network chef became a bit of a viral sensation when shefirst made one on Instagram in April 2020, during the height of the coronavirus outbreak.
“At the beginning of the pandemic I thought we all needed a treat so I didthe largest cosmo anybody’s ever had,” Garten told Hota Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager last month, after surprising the twoTodayco-hosts on the air with the beverage.
“It’s the size of my face,” Bush Hager said. Kotb added: “Your eyes are going to water if you take a sip of that. It’s got a lot going on there.”
It was just right for Garten. “No it’s perfect,” she said. “It’s tart and got a bit of vodka in it.”
She went on to say that while she loves a cosmo, she doesn’t often make them for her husband of 53 years, Jeffrey. “He likes a vodka, so that’s really easy. Vodka with olives,” Garten said. “I like Campari and soda at the holidays, it’s kind of festive cause it’s red.”

Meanwhile, though Garten may not be following Witherspoon’s plan, theMorning Showstar is staying true improving her habits.
She explained in her Instagram post that she started thinking about habits after reading James Clear’s bookAtomic Habits.
“It was really interesting because it’s really about how the habits you do every day really can change your life,” Witherspoon said. “If you’re doing something that’s 1% better for you every day, you’re going to get 1% better every day. If you’re doing something that’s 1% worse for you every day, you’re going to get 1% worse.”
The book motivated Witherspoon to post. “I wanted to share what my daily habits are that I’m really working on, and the ones that I have trusted,” she said.
