I recall quite some years ago when AB said in some sort of interview why
took up cooking (school??). He wanted to meet more women/girls back in
his youngster days when at college or that sort of thing. Plus, he
wanted to learn the "science" of why cooking worked the way it does,
something like that. I do miss AB's "Good Eats" cooking show and I wish
it'd come back
