It Sounds Trite To Go

I Have Never Denied My Background Or My Culture. I Have Taught My Child To Embrace Her Mexican Heritage, To Love My First Language, Spanish, To Learn About Mexican History, Music, Folk Art, Food, And Even The Mexican Candy I Grew Up With.

I Don’t Have Stamina In Exercise...but I Have It In Life.

You Know Latin People? African-american People? How Our Skin Ages More Slowly? Even Though We're Dramatic, We Move Our Faces, We Eat Higher-fat Foods, We're The Ones With Fewer Wrinkles - It Makes You Wonder.

I Received So Many Hate Letters When I Breast-fed A Starving Baby In Africa. I Was In Sierra Leone In 2009 And I Was Weaning My Child At That Time - She Was Not There With Me. There Was A Hungry Baby Who Was Crying Because His Mother Had No Milk, And I Thought, 'why Throw Away My Milk If I Can Give It To A Baby Who Needs It?'

I Love To Cook When I Have The Time. I Don't Cook French Or Mexican Food With Exact Recipes. I Just Go To The Supermarket And Buy Things That Look Good, And I Mix It All Together And Invent Something. Ninety-five Percent Of The Time, I'm Lucky. Sometimes Not So Lucky, And I Say, 'let's Go Out To Dinner.'
