I'm currently in an interesting correspondence with a nun about forgiveness.

One important theme is the extent to which one can ever correct an error especially outside any frame of religious forgiveness. All of us have done something we regret - how we manage to remove that from our conscience or whether that's even possible interested me.

Murder is unique in that it abolishes the party it injures so that society has to take the place of the victim and on his behalf demand atonement or grant forgiveness it is the one crime in which society has a direct interest.

We got Martha Stewart legitimizing homemaking for her generation and then there's this return to being interested in all things home lifestyle and food again. I think this generation is less about the frills and more about the flavor of things.

I did skit comedy online for many years beginning around 2001. Around 2006 I started watching a lot of food television and got re-interested in food. I come from a very food-obsessed family. But I also wanted to do my own thing which was the comedy.

It's fun to have money but the more money I get the less interesting it becomes. If you don't have very much you have to think about it. If you are starving you become interested in food. If you are struggling to pay the bills money becomes tragically important.

I love really good food and I don't ever want to spend too much for it but I like hanging out and having really good tasty interesting food.

It's a funny thing about me. I don't have any interest in food most of the time now although when I was a kid I was always hungry.

Not to like ice cream is to show oneself uninterested in food.

The interesting thing is while we die of diseases of affluence from eating all these fatty meats our poor brethren in the developing world die of diseases of poverty because the land is not used now to grow food grain for their families.
