Mother's Day comes early when two-time Oscar® winner and mom of three Sally Field drops by! Rachael asks the mother of three boys if she can recall some of her favorite Mother's Day memories. "The sad thing is, I have no Mother's Day memories at all - I have none!" Sally admits. "They've never given me anything for Mother's Day, not ever! Boys, are you listening to me?" She quickly corrects herself, remembering a gift she received from her son Eli. "He sent me a card once. I still have it, that's how important it was to me!"

Sally explains that her family used to enjoy many dinners together, but those days are over. "I just got over cooking ... I hate to say that to you!" she tells Rachael. "As a matter of fact, I have some of your books because I'm hoping to reignite the enthusiasm I used to have for cooking things. I don't even like what I cook anymore, I can't eat it! I'm sick to death of myself. I don't even like eating anymore -- unless it were pasta!"

Rachael asks Sally if she feels any of the Hollywood pressure to get plastic surgery or Botox. "I wish to goodness I could just stay young-looking forever," she laments, "but I'm an actor and there might be some really good roles for women who are in their 70s and 80s. Driving Miss Daisy ... I mean, look at the careers of some wonderful actors. I want to just look like an old lady -- as I'm heading toward really quick. It's OK to look older, as lousy as it feels to have all this stuff hanging down because that's the way it was supposed to be!"

Watch the video above to see Sally talk about some of the famous co-stars she once played mom to: Julia Roberts in Steel Magnolias and Tom Hanks in Forrest Gump.
