I prize my seamstress, I value my copyist; but my cook, who knows well how to prepare the food to sustain life, and nourish brain, bone, and muscle, fills the most important place among the helpers in my family.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I love to cook for people. It's my honor, honestly. It's what I have to give.
As a philanthropist, I try to help people take ownership. Everything I've done is rooted in the notion that every human being is born equally capable. What people lack is equal opportunity.
I enjoy cooking for people I am close to.
I cook, I create, I'm incredibly excited by what I do, I've still got a lot to achieve.
I am a homebody, something that lends itself to my profession.
In all my work I like to convey the fact that I like cooks, that it's noble toil and that it is hard.
I'm the glue that keeps it all together. I'm the nucleus of an entertainment family. My day-to-day is making decisions to keep life above water.
I prize the Depression, for instance, because I learned the value of things in the Depression that a way people who don't have to worry about such things never learned to prize it really, I believe.
Having realised that in cooking there was a vast field of study and development, I said to myself, 'Although I had not originally intended to enter this profession, since I am in it, I will work in such a fashion that I will rise above the ordinary, and I will do my best to raise again the prestige of the chef de cuisine.'
I am not a great cook, I am not a great artist, but I love art, and I love food, so I am the perfect traveller.
