bowl cereal easy fruit milk mix perfect quick rush sit weekends
During the week it isn't always easy to sit down together and I am usually in a rush to get everyone off to school. A bowl of cereal and milk with fruit is perfect because it's quick and easy. I like to mix it up on the weekends when we can all relax in our pajamas.
good people shows throwback
There's reality shows and things like that and I think 'Parenthood's kind of a throwback to what we used to have back in the '70s, '80s and '90s. People want to see this again, and I feel like it's just a solid, good show.
able ive-learned life-experience
I've learned from life experiences. If you go through certain things, you're able to pull from them.
mom children kids
As a mom, I understand how important it is to ensure kids start their day right and always make sure my kids have a nutritious breakfast. One in five U.S. children live in homes where food is not always available, which is why I partnered with Kellogg's on their 'Share Your Breakfast' campaign, which provide breakfasts to kids in need.
cancer fighting honor
Women still, when they have breast cancer, go to work; they still lead their lives. They have to. I just did what I was supposed to do. I didn't want to exploit it or be too "actory" about it, if that makes any sense. That's also why I didn't shave my head; I feel like you have to earn that. I applaud other actors who do that and I am not ripping on them, but to me, that's a badge of honor if you're fighting this disease.
yoga things-to-do thousand
Well, I don't like yoga. I've got a thousand things to do.
cancer laughing gone
The women I know who have gone through breast cancer still laugh a lot. They're not crying all day.
people roles blonde
People figure because I'm blonde and was a model, I just waltzed into Los Angeles and got major roles in major films.
clean cooks
I love to clean. I love to cook.
scary mammograms firsts
I had to go for a mammogram - my first mammogram ever - and It was really scary and I didn't know what to expect.
flower journey people
For me to get the support and the love and response we did from critics, but to also be at Trader Joe's and have women come up to me and cry and hug me is on another level. That makes you take a step back because there are genuine emotions at stake. People were truly on a journey with her. This story opened up week by week like a flower. It was just a magical season, and I'm so happy I got to do it.
mom kids littles
Well, I am not really a conventional mom at all. Like, I had my kids really young. I had Danny when I was 18 or 19 and then Liam when I was 23 and Molly, I had when I was a little older.
heart disease killers
Most women do not realize that heart disease is the #1 killer of American women.
flower home vortex
I shop at thrift stores a lot. I have a lot of silver pitchers and I put my flowers in those. I collect antiques, so there are a lot of old rocking chairs... My friends call my home the vortex because nobody wants to leave.
