Cooking Is The Art Of Adjustment.

The Menus That Remain, For Me, Are Really The Menus That You Have With Your Good Friends, With Your Wife, With Your Mother, With Your Kids. These Are What Stay In Your Mind.

Basically, I Go To The Local Farmer's Market And Decide To What To Cook Then, Depending On What I Find. Either My Wife Or I Cook, And We Usually Finish A Bottle Or Two Of Wine By The Time We Are Done Cooking And Eating.

I Cooked At The White House For Easter, Last Year, With Michelle Obama. But It More Had To Do With Cooking From The Organic Garden, And Her Message. I Took My Daughter And Granddaughter There, And They Were Really Charming, It Was Great.

Children Never Lie...i Remember My Daughter Standing In Her Crib The First Time I Gave Her Caviar. I Put It On Bread. She Ate It And Said, "encore, Papa."

When I Wrote 'fast Food My Way' In 2004, I Hoped That My Friends Would Prepare My Recipes. Now, More People Cook From That Book Than Any Other I've Written In The Past 30 Years.
