Drew Barrymore: I love my wrinkles!
While many actresses of 34 have already checked in for their first batch of Botox injections, Drew Barrymore has announced she loves the ageing process.
The ‘Whip It!’ actress and director says, “It’s the best time of my life – it’s not traumatic at all. I don’t think I’ve ever been happier. It’s like the older I get, the better I get. Gravity and wrinkles are fine with me. They’re a small price to pay for the new wisdom inside my head and my heart. If my breasts fall down to the floor and everything starts to sag, becoming hideous and gross, I won’t worry. I’ll stop appearing in front of the camera. That’s fine with me because I love producing and directing.”
Drew – who is dating actor Justin Long – believes her good attitude is the secret to her looks. She adds, “I’m happy and I think happiness is what makes you pretty. Happy people are beautiful. They become like a mirror and they reflect that happiness.”

Over the Teacups
After putting my six-year-old and three-year-old to bed, I settled down on the couch to watch TV. Miss
Three decided she wanted to join Mum, but with her Barbie as well. She asked me to brush Barbie’s hair with my fingers as we couldn’t find the comb. I replied, “No, it’s bedtime. You’ve had your kiss and cuddle and a story. It’s Mum’s quiet-time.” So what does my beautiful little girl turn around and say to me? “You’re fired!”

ANIMAL ADVICE
My five-year-old grandson, who has been at school for two months, imparted some excellent advice recently. “If you get into a rhinoceros’ enclosure, don’t move because their eyes have evolved to register movement.” He told me he had learnt this at school. It’s just one of the many amazing revelations he has passed on in his five short years!

JAM PACKED
My sister’s eyesight is not the best. Recently, she put a dollop of raspberry jam, instead of tomato sauce, into the
mince. She scooped out as much as she could and said if her husband complained – which was likely – she would just call it “sweet and sour”!
