I think that my interpretation of Italian was a lot more southern than what my husband cooks. You know, I grew up in Queens and in Brooklyn, and we – really, it’s more southern.

The best shows I’ve done, the writers, actors, and directors have been pretty much left alone – maybe given a little guidance to make it a little more this or more that. But the heavier the hand on the show, I find, the more troubled the show is.
I cannot live a life where I’m deprived. I’d much rather be five, 10 pounds heavier. With my luck, I’ll get myself to that perfect goal weight, and I’ll get hit by a bus. Then I’ll be like… looking at myself from some afterlife going, ‘You idiot. You could have had that agnolotti, dummy.’
