There's no denying that candy is comfort food and it's affordable.

I don't like sitting still at a desk and often conduct business on my Blackberry or in walking meetings.

If these rich women from 5th Avenue spend a fortune on cashmere sweaters, they will come to my store to buy gummy bears.

I've been entrepreneurial since middle school. I was always arranging bake sales, dances and school trips to raise money for the Dalton School.

Before I got married, I never really watched TV. Now, my husband and I watch 'The Bachelor' together. I love 'The Soup' - that's where I get a lot of my pop culture - and 'Chelsea Lately.
