Before I did 'How I Met Your Mother,' I was not considered a comedic actress.

Kindness is something that I feel is leaving us a little bit - people are getting more self-involved.

I have so many single girlfriends who fit themselves into the mold of what they think a guy's looking for. But being comfortable around men is about being comfortable with yourself. They gravitate toward confidence. Really, that is what they want to be around.

I love macaroni and cheese. I could eat it every meal of the day.

I never want to lose my Canadian-ness...and when I say Canadian-ness, I mean down-to-earth. I like being able to not take myself seriously and to not feel entitled.

I do Pilates because it's important for me to have a healthy back when I'm 70 so I'm not hunched over and in pain. That's more important to me than being thin.

Secretly, or maybe not so secretly, I've always wanted to be a rock star.
