HARRISON FORD
A Personal Interview
Written By Jay Christian
Harrison Ford has maintained a high profile as an actor. The handsome star has been in over two dozen blockbuster movies, and carries the highest reputation in Hollywood, with close to $10 billion in box office sales-worldwide.
There is a lot of stress that goes with his high demanding job and Harrison revealed in this exclusive interview with me how he keeps his sanity through it all.
“I think what’s helped me is that I inherited tolerance from both my parents, especially tenacity from my father,” he said.
When asked about his belief in any kind of religion, Harrison answered, “As far as my belief in faith, personally I think I’m more reflective than I was when I was younger.”
Harrison feels that when times get stressful for him, he tries to deal with it himself, but sometimes he will seek the advice of others. He said, “When I need advice, it depends on what area I require advice in, that I turn to other people for help. Sometimes, I’m completely out of my depth for some situations. I have people that I talk to about things that have to do with work. I have people that I talk to about more personal things. I’m pretty much a person that keeps their own counsel and I don’t go looking for advice very often. I believe in working things out myself."
Harrison loves to relax in the kitchen and revealed, “I like to cook, but I don’t spend a lot of time in the kitchen these days because of my acting schedule. I like clean and simple cooking- herb flavors. I like foreign foods as well. I’m also into meals-in-minutes. If we can’t make it in about 15 minutes, then we’ve got the wrong menu. I like foods like a piece of broiled fish or meat or chicken. A little pasta or salad. And some fresh vegetables.”
And what is Harrison’s favorite food? “I guess if I could only eat one food for the rest of my life, it would be ripe peaches, I love’em!”
Harrison is a firm believer in keeping fit for good physical and mental health. He admits that, “I don’t take any vitamins and I sleep five hours a night, at the most.”
“With diet, I’m not into counting calories I’m into avoiding them. For breakfast, I drink a lot of coffee. Lunch is usually a great sandwich and dinner is a nice meal with some great wine. I’ll eat fruit for snacks and I drink lots and lots of water throughout the day.”
When it comes to self-observation, Harrison confessed the following about himself. “My only bad habit is my impatience. I’m vain, I don’t envy anyone and I don’t believe in revenge,” he confided.
Ford also revealed, “I read my horoscope sometimes, but I think it’s rubbish mostly.”
Harrison feels he shares a lot of common ground with most people when it comes to complaints. “One thing that bothers me about people is rudeness. The lack of attention to the job at hand, is another thing. Also, I hate doing interviews and having my teeth cleaned,” said the ornery, but truthful actor.
Harrison admits he’s more of an intellectual-thinking person, but sums himself up in six simple words.
“I guess I can describe myself as reserved, careful, focused, practical, purposeful. Oh…. And did I mention, cute?!!” he said with a laugh.*
CELEBRITY RECIPE THIS MONTH
IN MEMORIAM
When gathering dishes for my Hollywood recipe book, Dolly was kind enough to share a personal favorite: a custard dessert named "Islands in the Stream." She will always be remembered for her kindness and generosity.
May she rest in peace.
DOLLY PARTON’S ISLANDS IN THE STREAM
Ingredients:
1 quart milk
3 large eggs, separated
⅔ cup sugar
2 heaping teaspoons flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Ground nutmeg, if desired
Directions:
In a 2 quart saucepan, heat milk just until bubbles form around side of pan. In small bowl with electric beater, cream egg yolks with ⅓ cup sugar until smooth and pale yellow. Beat in flour. Beat hot milk into yolk mixture until blended. Pour milk mixture into the same saucepan and cook, stirring constantly, until it thickens- 20 to 25 minutes. Take custard off the heat and stir in the vanilla. Cover surface with plastic wrap; refrigerate until cold.
In a large skillet, heat an inch of water to boiling. Keep the water boiling at a simmer. In a bowl, with electric mixer, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in remaining ⅓ cup sugar until stiff peaks form. With a large spoon, scoop up one sixth of beaten egg whites into a large oval. With the help of another spoon, push oval into simmering water. Poach egg-white ovals, 3 at a time, until set, about 5 minutes- gently turning them twice. Remove carefully and drain on paper towels. Repeat to make three more. To serve, pour chilled custard into shallow serving bowl. Float islands of egg-white ovals on top. Sprinkle ground nutmeg on top of islands, if desired. Chill dessert until serving time. Serves 6.
