I learned you really do have to make sure you enjoy life.

Always follow your own path.

I am not one to turn down macaroni and cheese, even late at night. I love Italian food. I love pasta... A refrigerator full of water and Gatorade? Honey, that's just not gonna happen.

I'm not the type that's going to sit and preach to people if they don't need it just because I've been around the block a few times.

Life is so much bigger, grander, higher, and wider than we allow ourselves to think.

I already enjoy cooking. I like different flavors and putting different things together and really like taking normal recipes to a higher level.

No one ever got ahead by going through the motions. You have to constantly be improving yourself. Make your life the masterpiece you want it to be.
