Eva Longoria

Baking is too precise for me. I cook with a pinch of this or that.

When you're fighting for social justice, one of my biggest pet peeves is speaking out of ignorance.

Who I am at the core and what I think represents me is really reflected in my family.

I cannot cook to save my life. I'm really frighteningly useless, when you get down to it.

Although I write to entertain, and try to keep my work free of didacticism, I do have a rather passionate belief in our need to be connected to - and to learn from - history.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.
