Remember, you are all alone in the kitchen and no one can see you.

Wine is one of the agreeable and essential ingredients of life

I love root vegetables: carrots, parsnips, and turnips.

As we say in the American Institute of Wine and Food, small helpings, no seconds. A little bit of everything. No snacking. And have a good time.

In the 1960s, you could eat anything you wanted, and of course, people were smoking cigarettes and all kinds of things, and there was no talk about fat and anything like that, and butter and cream were rife. Those were lovely days for gastronomy, I must say.

In spite of food fads, fitness programs, and health concerns, we must never lose sight of a beautifully conceived meal.

Romance is the icing but love is the cake.
