“Every once in a while, I want to get up and cook.” — Alex Guarnaschelli

You have to be disciplined about being in the kitchen.

I try to sit still for about 15 minutes each morning without making lists or running in overdrive.

I used to run track in high school and was unexceptional in every way.

I exercise at a great gym and do dance classes mixed with some calisthenics. I really enjoy that because it reminds me of '80s aerobics. It's fun! I also bike ride, or sometimes I swim. Because I stand a lot, I don't really like to walk long distances. Running or jogging is out of the question.
