"I would swing by [Miette's] kitchen to provide training on technique, and I met Caitlin during my first trip. ... I remember thinking what a strange creature Caitlin was. She was fast and pragmatic and cute and tough. She would wear vintage dresses... and text her partners using an early smartphonelike device called a Sidekick... I never imagined the existence of women so earthy, ambitious, dedicated, and young, all at once. Eventually, both my and Caitlin's single-minded focus on our businesses took the inevitable toll on our relationships..... we've been together ever since."
