My playground was the theatre. I'd sit and watch my mother pretend for a living. As a young girl, that's pretty seductive.

I think to have a regular job and be a mom is not as, of course there are challenges, but it's not like being on set.

I had my first bowl of gazpacho when I was fifteen in Spain, and the impression it made was a lasting one.

I don't eat four-legged animals, but I eat birds, I eat cheese, I eat dessert. I eat everything.

I think it's the strange irony that we make all these life choices before we're 40, because really we shouldn't make any until we're 40. It almost feels like you get a software upgrade and you start to experience life in such a different way, because you just don't suffer fools, you go straight for what means something and what feels good, and you stop caring about pleasing other people.

If you go in in the morning and have had a rough night, dunking your face in ice water is really good.

Invest in what's real. Clean as you go. Drink while you cook. Make it fun. It doesn't have to be complicated. It will be what it will be.
