    Wish I would have been in town. I’ve got a few things to say about this. Great topic.

    Ummm….don’t some chefs have husbands?

    I wish i knew of this “lecture”. I was with this man for 8 yrs. I left because he decided to have an affair with a co-worker. Also, his bio is false. Liberal arts at a community college is not the same as environmental science, and we moved here in 1998.
