If there's a field you're interested in, do some research. If you can, go to school and study it to really understand it from its core.
As long as you're eating well and moving your body every day, age is just a state of mind
Every time I think I have something under control, it changes and I don't have it under control. I think it takes several years to get there. Jade is 19 months old, so right now I'm on alert all the time. And as a mom I think you're constantly worrying about things.
I think children learning to cook can be such a wonderful thing. It can help build confidence, make them feel good about themselves. It helped me build my ego and even start to get acceptance at school. I'd bring things to class that I'd cooked at home.
I think it can be hard for any man to sometimes be upstaged by his wife. So when I'm home, I work very hard to be Todd's wife and Jade's mother. I have no problem going back to those traditional roles. I try to be Giada, the young girl that he met 20 years ago and fell in love with.
I don't eat a lot of anything. A little bit of everything, but not a lot of everything. Small meals all day long.
There's nothing like a home-cooked meal - nothing! When people ask me what the best restaurant in L. A. is, I say, 'Uh, my house. ' It's more intimate. Food can connect people in a forever sort of way.
I think it's interesting to see how things come into and go out of fashion.
Anything that can be put in a nut shell should remain there.
I don't really have much to prove. I can easily go in a comfort zone, make two films a year, hype them because I've signed them as a star, make them cheap and they will be big hits.
You can't make a life over. Society wouldn't let you if you would.
