I think a great classic watch is the first staple every woman should invest in.

I always think, after the second glass of wine, you should be putting something in your stomach.

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 think eating in itself is the act of great sensuality, so all you have to do is point the camera in the right direction.

I'm the kind of girl who thinks about what she's gonna cook for dinner when she's finishing her lunch.

People always comment about my clothes. They don't think a fashionable woman can love food and be knowledgeable and actually cook.

Whenever I'm in sync with the trends, it's always an accident. I still love wearing clothes I've had for ten years. I think understated luxury is the chicest thing.

Wine, like food, is so emotional. If you think about it, so much of the courting ritual is surrounded by wine and food. There's a built-in romance to wine.

I think wine is such a big universe that it's kind of like food - it's intimidating to a lot of people, myself included.
