I Felt I'd Earned The Good Housekeeping

Be Real. Make Connections With People. Look Them In The Eye. Tell Them How You Feel. Don't Be Afraid To Say What You Mean. When You Let Go Of The Stuff You Hold Inside, You'll Be Amazed At What Comes Back To You.

I Don't Know That I Have A Favorite Meal. When I'm Cooking I'm Thinking About The Person I'm Feeding And I Want To Make Them Whatever They Want. My Husband's Favorite Meal Is Carbonara. I Guess My Favorite Food Is Anything My Mom Makes. Because Like Anybody Who Loves Their Mother's Cooking, If You Try And Make Your Mom's Recipes, They Never Taste Quite The Same. And I Don't Know If That's Because She's Lying About What She's Putting In There And Just Not Telling Me. Like When I Turn My Back, She's Sneaking Something In There. It Just Never Seems To Taste The Same.

When Men I Have Dated Over The Years Whined About, ‘oh, You Make No Time For Me’ – See Ya! I Just Dumped Them. I Don’t Need That Pressure In My Life.

Make Big Pots Of Soups, Stews And Chilis - They Stretch A Buck, And You Can Live Off Them For Days!

My Husband Cooks Fancier Food For Himself Than I've Ever Cooked On-air. I Call Him From The Road, And He's Making Champagne-vanilla Salmon Or Black-cherry Pork Chop. Half Of Me Is Feeling Unworthy. Not Only Am I Not A Chef, I'm Not A Better Cook Than My Own Husband!
