No one cares what you ate for breakfast. Unless it's something really spectacular, don't tweet me your breakfast, I don't care.

Every episode has a purpose to move the story forward.

After 'Freaks and Geeks,' I dealt with several producers who wanted to cover up all my beauty marks, every single mole on my body. They tried to cover them on my first two episodes of 'Dawson's Creek,' and it just looked ridiculous, so I had to put my foot down. But it's not something I'm insecure about.

As an actor, it's always fun when you're able to feel like there's freedom to explore things and try out jokes and be funny.

It's so hard to find the time. I only have one kid and it's hard with one kid. I can't imagine people who have more than that.

I like starting off the new year fresh. I'm excited to see how 2013 turns out. Maybe because I'm an actress and I am always on a diet and fitness program, but my New Year's resolution is to let myself be nice to myself about my body.

Birdie is amazing and such an incredible child and I'm having such a great time being a mom but I still want to have a career and I still look forward to auditions and parts, and when I don't get them I'm disappointed.
