I have a great career, and I have my daughter. Sio what I don't have is not as important to as what I do have.

I always loved my bangles, I can't remember a time when I didn't have a bangle on.

During the course of filming 'Top Chef,' I gain 15 lbs., so I'm used to needing two dress sizes.

I'm not of the American ilk that, you know, your lover needs to be your best friend and know you inside out. I think he should know you well enough to please you. Otherwise, what secret will there be to tell him when you're ninety?

I've always thought the back is one of the most beautiful parts of a woman.

I love clothes, but really I don't have that much to say about skirts. Before I was writing, I went to fashion shows only when the designer was a good friend and I was there to show support.

I grew up a vegetarian. Then, because I grew up in the states, I started slowly eating meat. First it was bologna sandwiches, or pepperoni on pizza.
