One of my favorite memories from growing up in Brazil is being in the kitchen with my family and watching everyone bake and cook.

Growing up eating fruits and vegetables fresh from our farm added a lot to the way I taste and look at food today, and I wanted the same for my kids and other kids.

My waist used to be tiny. I just saw a picture of Miley Cyrus with a little crop top and low pants, and I'm like, 'That was me growing up in Brazil!' I had the typical model body, but after babies, it changed. I look more like a woman.

I'm still learning how to do things - like lining my eyes? Forget it.

Family quarrels are bitter things. They don't go according to any rules. They're not like aches or wounds, they're more like splits in the skin that won't heal because there's not enough material.

For the Nugent family, fast food is a running herbivore.

Nobody has ever before asked the nuclear family to live all by itself in a box the way we do. With no relatives, no support, we've put it in an impossible situation.

My oldest son started to like 'South Park' and 'Family Guy,' so we'd watch together so I could spend time with him.
