My biggest challenge is cooking traditional French dishes, which usually require very specific techniques and methods. That’s just not my style... I cook from the soul.

I really don't limit myself in any way. I just search for great flavors and marriages wherever they come from.

I love hospitality, and I love cooking. The kitchen is where I feel most at ease and where I feel most like myself.

He who finds joy within himself discovers that his body is charged with electric current, life energy, not from food but from God.

My wife dresses to kill. She cooks the same way.

And homeless near a thousand homes I stood, And near a thousand tables pined and wanted food.

Why don't they just make mouse-flavored cat food?

I can't stand people that do not take food seriously.

It took a man to help us understand cooking is not a woman's drudgery. It took a man to show us that it could be fulfilling and wonderful.

I'm going to be a happy housewife. I'm going to be washing boxers and cooking and doing all those sorts of housewife duties. I just want to be happy and proud of every single day.
