DON'T wear loud clanging bangles at work, it's disruptive and noisy and your coworkers won't appreciate it! Bangles should have a gentle wind-chimey tinkle, not the crash bang of a million pots and pans.

More quotes by Padma Lakshmi
Wine, like food, is so emotional. If you think about it, so much of the courting ritual is surrounded by wine and food. There's a built-in romance to wine.
Padma Lakshmi
I'm still amazed at how much people are willing to humiliate themselves to be on TV.
Padma Lakshmi
From the simple stringing together of lemon garlands for the goddess Durga, to dividing the prasadam or blessed foods for the children first, I came to associate food not only with feminity, but also with purity and divinity.
Padma Lakshmi
Part of my job as a food writer is to describe food. So my work on 'Top Chef,' I feel, is an extension of that. When we give a criticism to the contestant, we want to make sure we tell them why it's not working and why it would work if they did it a different way.
Padma Lakshmi
I'm a sucker for fried chicken - I really love it.
Padma Lakshmi
I usually doze off between 7:30 and 9 p.m. while putting my baby to sleep. Then I suddenly wake up remembering I'm an adult with no bedtime. I spend the next four hours catching up on reading, e-mails, and other adult pursuits until I collapse for good until sunrise.
Padma Lakshmi
I always loved my bangles, I can't remember a time when I didn't have a bangle on.
Padma Lakshmi
Women's voices not being heard is the root of many of the problems of the world.
Padma Lakshmi
I think eating in itself is the act of great sensuality, so all you have to do is point the camera in the right direction.
Padma Lakshmi
I'm not of the American ilk that, you know, your lover needs to be your best friend and know you inside out. I think he should know you well enough to please you. Otherwise, what secret will there be to tell him when you're ninety?
Padma Lakshmi
Jewelry should not upstage you. I pick one hot point on my body that I'm going to highlight. Let one area do the singing - you don't want to hear three songs at once.
Padma Lakshmi
I will eat anything, at least once. For better or worse.
Padma Lakshmi
I know most people use their phones to tell time, but there's something very romantic and beautiful about a timepiece.
Padma Lakshmi
I like me better naked. I don't mean that in a vain way... When you put clothes on, you immediately put a character on. Clothes are adjectives, they are indicators. When you don't have any clothes on, it's just you, raw, and you can't hide.
Padma Lakshmi
Every city has a Donald Trump ours is just the Trumpiest.
Padma Lakshmi
In southern Spain, they made me eat a bull's testicles. They were really garlicky, which I don't like. I prefer to take a bull by the horns, not by, um...
Padma Lakshmi
Each city has its own culinary landscape.
Padma Lakshmi
In a way that somebody else converts to Judaism or becomes a Hare Krishna, I belong to the church of fried chicken.
Padma Lakshmi
I grew up a vegetarian. Then, because I grew up in the states, I started slowly eating meat. First it was bologna sandwiches, or pepperoni on pizza.
Padma Lakshmi
India's had two groovy moments. Once when the Beatles went to India and now when Madonna has embraced yoga.
