Best meal I ever ate:

Lentil soup, with a salad, a hunk of day-old baguette, red wine, good conversation, and a earnest dose of autumn in the evening air.

My current drink of choice:

Paso a Paso Tempranillo, 2008

I really wish I could:

Have the time to devote myself to the things I want to learn, and to the things I want to create, instead of working 10 hours a day, coming home to take care of all the minutiae of daily life, and going to bed tired, only to be woken (in what seems like only a few minutes later) to another carbon-copy day. Yeah, I know: for most folks, I’m probably preaching to the choir with that lament.

My "Go-to" dinner party dish:

Call me a sheltered-child, but I’ve never hosted a dinner party.

My favorite comfort food:

Spaghetti with tomato sauce, salad, a good baguette, and red wine -- followed promptly by seconds.

My most tattered cookbooks:
