How do I make Firefox open a specific page (i.e.; www.google.com) instead of a blank page when I open a new tab

When I open a new tab it is always blank. I would like it to open to www.google.com, for example. How do I get Firefox to open a specific page every time I open a new tab instead of a blank page. Is there a setting for this? If so, where do I find it?
