When I Talk To Kids Who Are

I Could Be Hit By A Sara Lee Truck Tomorrow. Which Is Not A Bad Way Of Going: 'richard Simmons Found In A Freeway In Pound Cake And Fudge, With A Smile On His Face.' Let's Face It. We Don't Know Anything.

I Began Reading Cook Books When I Was Six, Cause My Father Had Hundreds Of Cook Books In The Kitchen. I Was Obsessed With Cooking And Tasting Different Recipes. I Got Lost In Being A Compulsive Eater. It Brought Me Much Happiness. Sadness Too, Sure. But I Have To Say, And Compulsive Eaters Will Agree With Me, For That Few Seconds That You're Eating, Food Tastes Just Great.

I Start Phone Calls At 4 A.m. To Cheer People Up. The Housebound, People In The Hospital. People Who, After Decades, Still Can't Get Over What Happened 10 Or 15 Years Ago.

I've Never Swayed From Who I Am. People Have Seen Me On Television, And They Know What I'm Like And They Know What I Do And They Respect Me For What I Do. They Know That I'm Huggy And Kissy.

I Just Strive To Do Better. Every Time I Meet Somebody, I Ask Myself, "how Can I Help This Person?"
