I started cooking out of middle school depression.

I think that paying your bills every month, that's not so glamorous or fun, having a job, or when your child gets sick. That's why when there are those special things, they are even more important and you want them to have a purpose.

Every seam, every lace, every bead has been painstakingly, with love, corrected, perfected and mastered.

Glamour can be something very simple. Glamour can be how you wash your face, how you make your breakfast.

We are living in the time of self-creation and you can become your own star and this is the essential set that it needs to take that selfie that's going to take you to that next place.

I love creative people.

Food is everything. Food, friends, family: Those are the most important things in life.
