I'm in total celebrity denial in general, but there's awareness that probably if somebody has met you, they might go and tell somebody. I just would rather have the word on the street stay at a neutral, not like, "She shows up in a ball gown," but "She seemed nice." That's fine.

We've had four or five casts in three years. There was a point when I thought the Department of Children and Family Services was going to show up at my door!

There's an expression: Great is the enemy of the good. Sometimes in trying to be great, you make a mess of things.

My husband is very funny and his humor has gotten us through a lot. He's good at defusing me.

I have this fancy Givenchy bag. I don't know what the Kardashians have in their bags - I bet they have really expensive products or six cellphones or something. I have a cellphone and some lipstick for me, and the rest is just filled with stuff for the kids - sunscreen and lip balm and little Ziploc bags of pretzels and cheese sticks.

Kids don't seem to recognize when they're hungry until they're starving and in the emergency zone, so I'm like, "Who wants some apple slices and cheese?"

I count myself lucky to be fairly anonymous but occasionally have people tell me nice things.
