Buying stock is exactly the same thing as going to a casino, only with no cocktail service.

Not to sound too much like Christopher Guest in 'Waiting for Guffman,' but on Thanksgiving you're putting on a show!

The world is full of people who would like nothing better than to spend six hours on a golf course. I would rather be chopping shallots.

I'm in a loft and the kitchen is in the very center of the apartment. The whole place revolves around it.

People want honest, flavourful food, not some show-off meal that takes days to prepare.

People who hardly ever cook at all, suddenly at the holidays, feel like it's their responsibility to not only cook dinner for large groups of people suddenly, but to serve things that are fussy or fancy or formal. And I don't think that's what anybody really wants, especially if you're not good at it.

I've leased the apartment; my partner is going to come out here. But we're keeping our house in Chicago because real estate is a really good investment and also because it is just crammed with full of stuff!
