Do the work you are most proud of

Cooking and baking are pleasures and I want everyone to be able to experience and share them.

Real French people don't bake! At least they don't bake anything complicated, finicky, tricky or unreliable.

Sometimes I think there are devils at work in the kitchen - recipes that are always perfect sometimes come out less than perfect and I can't figure out why.

I don't know if there's a method that I'd like to see younger people bring back, I just want to see everyone of every age in the kitchen.

Every mother and daughter should make time for a trip together. It's good for the soul.

All cravings are the mind seeking salvation or fulfillment in external things and in the future as a substitute for the joy of Being.

People wanted to have fun more than they wanted to learn from their music, and that's where the shift started to happen.

Your master plan has holes big enough to drive a truck through.

Please be informed, there is a Santa Claus.

Eighty percent of the things I do are not natural for my personality. I believe you have to fake it till you make it. Act like you're confident and you'll get there.

Money's a very serious thing - especially when you haven't got any.

Pain is the biggest power of love.
