She may be
a media mogul with a estimated net worth of about $2.9billion, but
Oprah Winfrey seems to enjoy the little things in life.
The 60-year-old former talk show host is on the latest cover of O, The Oprah Magazine and in it she admits she is already thinking about the feast she will have to celebrate the American holiday Independence Day.
In
the 'Upgrade your life!' theme issue Oprah said: 'Fourth of July is

veggie burger or a hot dog?'

Last
July, Oprah made light of her plight as she a picture onto Instagram of
herself holding two burgers: one vegetarian and the other beef. She
captioned the image: 'Moo or veggie? Happy 4th! We love the U.S.A.'
In
the magazine the media mogul also touches on more serious topics
including books she is excited about and how she upgrades her life.
As she topped Forbes list
of 'most powerful celebrities' last year, its hard to imagine how she
can even think of upgrading her life but she said she does it every way
she can.
Oprah
said: 'Every Oprah Show I ever taped, every magazine article I
published, every Lifeclass and Super Soul Sunday I’ve done – they all
originated with the intention to upgrade.'

Despite

blessed to have the life I’m living. Several times a day I look around
in awe of how someone like me, born in apartheid Mississippi, got to
where I am. It’s still a wonder to me.'

ensemble featuring a patterned maxi skirt, yellow long-sleeved top, and
