I think that people can relate to family. There is a person that watches the show because they want to see what I am going to create. There is a person that watches the show because they want to see my family.

The worst part about ALS is that one day, you're able to brush your teeth; then you'll never be able to brush your teeth again. One day, you're able to walk - you're never going to walk again.
Sometimes, I pinch myself. Through everything, its about hard work... believing in yourself and in the American dream. Believe that you can make something out of yourself.
I love making cakes, and I'm good at it.
I get along with everybody.
I promised my daughter I'd name my first restaurant after her, but now the other kids are like, 'Dad, what about us?' I'm gonna have to open four restaurants!
The key to a good meal is simplicity and the right seasoning.
No matter what the recipe, any baker can do wonders in the kitchen with some good ingredients and an upbeat attitude!
Cakes are special. Every birthday, every celebration ends with something sweet, a cake, and people remember. It's all about the memories.
The television has opened a lot of doors for me. I am very successful at what I do, and I live a good life. It's not something that I'm embarrassed of. I think it's something people should want to aspire to.
I looked her in the eye, and I told her, 'Ma, I owe everything to you, and I couldn't be who I am without you. You're my No. 1 girl, and I'll always love you.' And I got to say my piece, I got to say goodbye to her - which was tough.
It's so important to find what you love. If you love it, you'll excel at it.
Everybody likes pizza! It's a quick and easy clean-up meal.
I would never talk bad about anybody, even if they have something derogatory to say about me. I'm the bigger person.
Oh, my wife is a wonderful cook. She comes from a food-loving Italian family - her father owned a pizzeria!
Having family time to reflect on your day is the best.
All of my family is so close. We're always over at each other's houses.
All Italians got a refrigerator in the garage. That's what we do.
I feel like our history and our roots make us who we are.
I tell my kids no television and no cellphones at the table.
You always help out a local businessperson.
I think good things happen to good people.
My kids are always in the kitchen with me - I bring them to the bakery and let them decorate cakes, and they also try to help me and my wife, Lisa, cook dinner at night.
You can tell when a girl went out of her way to look good.
I would love to sit at home all day and play with my kids. It's my favorite thing to do in my time off.
