About the Author

The author is a computer geek from the 1970s but was also a published author of short stories and poetry in high school and college. A veteran and survivor of the cold war, he spent 13 years as a nuclear trained electrician onboard submarines doing things he can't talk about for 99 years after he dies. Married to the woman of his dreams who is a fantastic cook, he takes interest in cooking. Admittedly a very bad cook. But he can boil water occassionally. He looks for new and innovative ways to mix and match ingredients thus making the old recipes very tempting. The kids and grandkids so far have avoided being guinea pigs thus leaving the long suffering wife. The author is lucky to live in Hawai'i on the Waianae Coast of Oahu along with his family of feline friends, who also turn up their nose at his experiments. He has learned to stick to recipes and thus the old time recipes. Meanwhile he supports his habit building web applications. He is much better at programming.
