Food is symbolic of love when words are inadequate.
One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.
Cooking is like love; it should be entered into with abandon or not at all.
Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you what you are.
Laughter is brightest in the place where the food is.
Food, to me, is always about cooking and eating with those you love and care for.

The only time to eat diet food is while you're waiting for the steak to cook.
