Suzanne Somers was a difficult one for me.. I remember first reading her book in the 90's, Eat Great, Lose Weight. It had so many recipes that she created.. I mean beautiful food... She made everything look so good.. a true chef/artist.
She stood up to Hollywood in the 1970's for equal pay for women at a time when it was unheard of. I know She struggled with cancer for so many years.. she ate healthy and took care of herself which is why it was very shocking to lose her.. even at 76. I think she was shocked too. Very smart, talented and pretty lady. RIP
