I Have A Fuller Figure

Thanksgiving Was Always A Favorite Holiday For Me. The Preparation Was Fun! My Grandma And I Would Walk To The Butcher On Jamaica Avenue In Queens, Order The Bird, And Buy All The Fixings At The Market.

I Truly Have A Love-hate Thing With The Press.

Desmo Is My Guard Dog, But He Has A Sweet Side, Too. Nothing Entertains Him (or Me) More Than When I Blow Bubbles And He Can Chase Them.

When My Mother Was Raising Me, She Moved Us Upstate To The Woodstock Area. Our Closest Neighbor Was A Mile Away. She Planted All Her Own Vegetables.

I Grew Up On Food Stamps. I Come From A Very Humble Background. And I've Had Many Friends That Have Been Destitute - You Know, Running Into Trouble - And Places Like The Midnight Mission Have Given Them Hope And Have Fed Them And Gotten Them Back On The Right Path.
