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.

More quotes by Giada De Laurentiis
I'm most comfortable in T-shirts, but they have to have some style to them.
Giada De Laurentiis
Cooking for me is a way to wind down. It's different from cooking on camera, where you have to do everything twice, for a wide shot and a close-up.
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
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.
Giada De Laurentiis
I spent time at my grandfather Dino's gourmet store where he brought in chefs from Naples to cook. I thought of them as rock stars.
Giada De Laurentiis
I think children learning to cook can be such a wonderful thing. It can help build confidence, make them feel good about themselves. It helped me build my ego and even start to get acceptance at school. I'd bring things to class that I'd cooked at home.

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.
Giada De Laurentiis
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.
Giada De Laurentiis
I lost my brother when he was 30, and that was devastating for me. I don't know if I will ever get over it.
Giada De Laurentiis
It will be a great success to me if my family comes into the restaurant and says that they're proud of what I've done, they're proud of the way I've represented the De Laurentiis name, and that they love my food. That is the moment of pure pride for me.
Giada De Laurentiis
It's more intimate. Food can connect people in a forever sort of way.
Giada De Laurentiis
As long as you're eating well and moving your body every day, age is just a state of mind
Giada De Laurentiis
Talking to other people while you're cooking, it doesn't come naturally.
Giada De Laurentiis
I keep my skin - especially on my face and neck - out of the sun. My brother died of melanoma eight years ago, and I've got SPF on all the time, 24-7. It makes you realize, the sun is a wonderful thing, but it can be a very devastating thing. So sunscreen is key, and a lot of laughter, too.
Giada De Laurentiis
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 don't eat a lot of anything. A little bit of everything, but not a lot of everything. Small meals all day long.
Giada De Laurentiis
My mother and I, our favorite part of any baked pasta is the top, where the cheese gets crusty.
Giada De Laurentiis
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.
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 eat a little bit of everything and not a lot of anything. Everything in moderation. I know that's really hard for people to understand, but I grew up in an Italian family where we didn't overdo anything. We ate pasta, yes, but not a lot of it.
