Talking to other people while you're cooking, it doesn't come naturally.

All men want to be treated like kings in a relationship, and I think if women don't indulge that sometimes, their men are likely to stray and look for someone who can give that to them.

I think it can be hard for any man to sometimes be upstaged by his wife. So when I'm home, I work very hard to be Todd's wife and Jade's mother. I have no problem going back to those traditional roles. I try to be Giada, the young girl that he met 20 years ago and fell in love with.

Pasta doesn't make you fat. How much pasta you eat makes you fat.

Food was always a big part of my life. My grandfather was one of 14 kids, and his parents had a pasta factory, so as a kid, he and his siblings would sell pasta door to door. After he became a movie producer, he opened up De Laurentiis Food Stores - one in Los Angeles and one in New York.

There's nothing like a home-cooked meal - nothing! When people ask me what the best restaurant in L.A. is, I say, 'Uh, my house.' It's more intimate. Food can connect people in a forever sort of way.

My mother and I, our favorite part of any baked pasta is the top, where the cheese gets crusty.

I'm into very colorful food. Obviously lots of flavor, but I think we eat with our eyes first, so it has to look great. The presentation has to be great.

It helps immerse yourself in what you potentially want to do. Being involved, learning firsthand and observing the craft and absorbing all you can, makes it easier to define what you want. It will also ultimately make you a better Chef. Culinary school, or even a single class, is a great bet too.

I always say to people that working full time and being a mom is probably the hardest job, because as a mom you think about your child 24/7.
Giada De Laurentiis
The holidays stress people out so much. I suggest you keep it simple and try to have as much fun as you can.
Giada De Laurentiis
I'm comfortable in my own skin. I know I'm not going to ever be Cindy Crawford or Elle MacPherson.
Giada De Laurentiis
In order to keep your husband, you have to make time for him. Rather than going out to dinner, I like to spend time for just the two of us.

I count on chiropractic sessions to keep my body aligned. Standing for hours can impact my posture, and that can throw the rest of my body out of whack. Acupuncture helps me relax and release stress. I'm also very into massage to help release tension in my back, neck, and shoulders.

It's almost ingrained in people that, just like you can't be a smart model, you can't be a good-looking cook.
Giada De Laurentiis
I was so nervous to turn 40, but the last year and a half has been the most fun I have ever had.

The summer before I went to culinary school, my family wanted me to take a job on a movie to make sure that I was making the right decision. I think they hoped I would change my mind about culinary school.
Giada De Laurentiis
I grew up in the kitchen, mostly with my grandfather, my mother and my aunt Raffy.
