[Preparing for award shows] gets insane. The dress, the hair, the makeup...I end up always picking the dress at the last second.

I don't always run in the mornings, but I am definitely better if I run in the mornings.

I always come across sounding like I hate my children. I actually love them very much.

I feel the most pulled together when I'm going for the tomboyish thing.

At restaurants, I carry paper and markers and tell everyone to draw a picture with a unicorn, an octopus and an explosion. That keeps kids still for a minute.

Kids think the world is about them, so if you forgot to put the right flavor yogurt in their lunch, and they have too much homework when they come home, they're like, "You know I hate peach!" There's a part of me that's like, "I'm so sorry. I could have shown my love more."

I guess I'm not that aware of such a big fan base. I have a few core people who write me no matter what I'm doing, but I hardly have sacks of mail being dropped on my door!
