It’s about time I tidy up a few things on this site, like the “About Us” section. Here is my story…

When William was a young boy, his father took him aside and said, “Ei up, come ‘ere lad. The reason being yur English, you must know how make beans on toast, like your father used to do when ‘e was a young lad. Now listen carefully…” And brutal simplicity of English cooking was bestowed upon the child.

Soon after, his mother took him aside and said, “Viens ici! William, because you are French, it is necessary that you know how to make a béchamel. If not, you will be ridiculed! I will teach you, Voyons…” And the cunning complexity of the French cuisine was bestowed upon the child.

(On a related note, upon his birth, the doctor that delivered him took one look upon the boy and said, “I know this child is here to make the perfect BLT” So the doctor tried to make a BLT with him (har har har), but before he could be eaten he was whisked away and this photo was taken.)

Baby, Lettuce, and Tomato

William was reared in the Southern United States, surrounded with cornbread, mashed potatoes made with so much butter they are yellow, sweet tea, collard greens, biscuits, Waffle House All Star Specials, and plenty of other food which shouldn’t make sense, but does.

William also somehow developed this character trait where if he has to do something and it’s something he likes to do, he will find out everything he can about it and will practice it to perfection. When he left for college, he had to feed himself and this lead him to an obsession with everything edible.

So if you think about it, it was kind of inevitable that he would make this website for you.

(a version of this post will be posted on the “about us” page.)

Other than that, William can drive stick, run marathons, brew his own beer, and is an INTJ.
