I never taste the wine first in restaurants, I just ask the waiter to pour.
I never have plans for the future as you never know how things will turn out.
I need to be frightened of things. I hate it, but I must need it, because it's what I do.
I know the crew so well, so I forget I'm being filmed. It's like cooking with a friend in the kitchen - you're talking, as you do, and maybe you're telling her about this wonderful way to prepare lamb chops - it's more natural, more honest.
It sounds like something on a very trite T-shirt, but life is what happens.
Also, in a funny way, if you have been happily married there are no unresolved areas, nothing to prove to yourself after the other dies.
I don't like conflict.
I don't believe in low-fat cooking.
I can understand why those primitive desert people think a camera steals their soul. It is unnatural to see yourself from the outside.
I am not sure about facelifts because I wouldn't want to be someone who just looks like she's had a facelift.
Emotion is messy, contradictory... and true.
Cooking is actually quite aggressive and controlling and sometimes, yes, there is an element of force-feeding going on.
But if you know that something has been really vicious, you don't read it, you don't let it into your head. What's damaging is when sentences go through your head and you burn with the injustice of it.
At some stages of your life you will deal with things and at others you are overwhelmed with misery and anxiety.
And, in a funny way, each death is different and you mourn each death differently and each death brings back the death you mourned earlier and you get into a bit of a pile-up.
