Quote by Padma Lakshmi
One thing that happens when youre pregnant is that as your stomach

One thing that happens when youre pregnant is that as your stomach starts to stretch. It itches! So I have to keep my belly really lubricated. Every morning, theres a buttering ceremony after I get out of the shower. Its really like basting a turkey with body butter. – Padma Lakshmi
