Growing up, our meals consisted primarily of vegetables, and then we had small amounts of meat.

I make my food in such a way that people can eat it every single day. My dad passed away from a heart attack, so it's always been very important for me to make food I love, the food we made growing up, but in a way that it won't be harmful to my body or to the people I love. Just as long as it's not boring. It has to be flavorful and delicious.

I'd like to see kids learning to cook and families sitting down to dinner together.

I really would like to help people get back into the kitchen.

Living big and joyful and content is almost always the result of our finding satisfaction in life's ordinary day-to-day pleasures. And God must be fond of them, too, for He made so many of them for us to enjoy.

The inspired Scriptures make the clear distinction between false and true riches and make plain the reason why happiness is gained and fully enjoyed only by those who find true riches.

Happiness has a bad rap. People say it shouldn't be your goal in life. Oh, yes it should.

We should all do what, in the long run, gives us joy, even if it is only picking grapes or sorting the laundry.
