Quotes from Nancy Silverton

I hated my mother's lunches. I was horrified by them. She would never buy Ding Dongs or Twinkies. She also used to make spanakopita and eggplant parmesan from ethnic cookbooks — and my favorite restaurant in the world was Denny's. I used to say, "When I grow up, my kids are going to eat whatever they want to eat, and my refrigerator is going to be full of everything they would want." And you know what? It just didn't happen.

—Nancy Silverton
