Remembering Mom

"I lost my mom--it's been a long time--2001, but I miss her all the time. When I get sad, I think of the last couple years of her life. We became really close. She was no longer working; she took care of my three sons when I was working. And I would spend time with her, cooking. Her baking--oh my God, she was a baker. Her cheesecake and her pies were amazing. Everybody loved them."
