I like working with the public, I like working with food, and I like making cash.

My favorite things often have a story behind them and are usually handmade or discovered at a flea market.

I like crafts that are made out of necessity because they're a little naive - you made it because you needed it.

I really don't like going out. I don't like restaurants because I don't like the idea of someone, a waitress, being responsible for my evening. I like seconds, and more, and lots of conversation, and I've always hated the idea that in a restaurant an evening just ends. I find that incredibly depressing.

I listen. I like to give advice. Mostly, Ill just try to listen to my friends, and theyll say the same thing over and over again.

I just like to have the ideas. Other people can help see them through.

I love theatrical props: a cup filled with solid fake tea, say, or a collection of fake food, including a rubber turkey, which, during the holidays, I wrap in tinfoil so it appears to have just come out of the oven.
