Balance is key in cooking - you want a little acid, a little sweet, a little savory - the flavors should be harmonious.

There is no better way to bring people together than with desserts.

I'm tempted by everything. My husband makes fun of me because every day it's a new food that I love. I have a weakness for butterscotch pudding, ice cream in any flavor and dark chocolate, although that's one thing I do keep in my house - 70% dark chocolate.

I had decided I wanted to write about food, and I knew the only way to do that is to speak with authority, which meant learning the language and knowing what that experience is like.

You know, I lose patience really easily; I'd rather shop in the grocery store than in the department store. I can pick an apple like nobody's business.

Balance is key in cooking - you want a little acid, a little sweet, a little savory - the flavors should be harmonious.

I have a mantra in my head that there will always be another meal. I can put my fork down, knowing there will be good things in my future!
