Do the dishes while you're cooking.

I really don't like take-out.

I have always wanted to own a homemade ice cream shop!

For my kids, I cook everything. We have dinner every night, pretty much, just the four of us: my husband and me and our two kids.

I'm a good skin, natural makeup kind of gal.

I bike around New York City as a way of getting everywhere I need to go.

The most overrated ingredients are garlic and extra-virgin olive oil. With garlic, it's personal I have never been that big of a fan of its flavor. As for extra-virgin olive oil, I do use it quite often but its ubiquity serves to overshadow many wonderful oils like pistachio, walnut, argan and even grapeseed.

If you splurge, do it on an item that's fun, because you'll feel good whenever you put it on.

My culinary wardrobe is the same as my biking wardrobe, just no shoes.

Designing bridal is perfect for me, because black is my least favorite color, if you could call it a color.

The hands really show signs of age.

The wisest advice I ever received regarding the kitchen came from my mother: 'Do the dishes while you're cooking.
