My extravagance is my garden - it's the first thing I look at every morning when I wake up. It gives me so much pleasure.

I try to greet my friends with a drink in my hand, a warm smile on my face, and great music in the background, because that's what gets a dinner party off to a fun start.

If you think about a Thanksgiving dinner, it's really like making a large chicken.

I absolutely adore Thanksgiving. It's the only holiday I insist on making myself.
