Granted one wish, I would still live the simple life I have. It's precious.
What's it like being chummy with internet sensation Leah Muse and occasionally getting mentioned on her blog? I imagine it's like being one of Truman Capote's society friends.
Leah is very much like Capote actually. She is always the life of the party.
What's your favorite food?
French. I <3 butter!
What is the best meal you've ever eaten? (That someone else made!)
The last time I went to Vespaio I had a special that included homemade pork sausage with goat cheese, steak and baguette kabobs, a great version of Potatoes Anna, roasted duck breast with cranberry sauce and a "Tower of Goodness" - which is bone marrow. Scooping the marrow out of the shank is the best part. I tried this for the first time in culinary school and it changed my life.
What do you hope for?
I hope for inspiration... and this happens every single day. I have an amazing wife and 2 very entertaining children. My life has never been simple, but when i'm home, it is simple but rich.
If you could take a year to go anywhere and do anything....where would you go and what would you do?
If it took me a whole year to get anywhere or do anything, I think I would be sad. I would know how the chameleon feels though...
If you were filthy rich, what would be the most eccentric thing you would do with your money?
Buy a few pounds of Kopi Luwak. It's a coffee from Indonesia that is $600/lb. The coffee cherries are eaten by a local weasel-like animal and the beans inside are "left behind". Locals gather the discarded beans and process them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kopi_Luwak
Favorite Star Wars character?
Boba Fett
What's your favorite thing about having twins?
The will always have each other.
What was your first impression of Robin? In what ways were you right/wrong?
Hott! Duh, she IS hot so I was right.
What would be your perfect day?
Realistically: Sleeping past 6 a.m., going to Kerbey Lane with Robin and having Eggs Francisco and 3 cups of coffee, trip to Zilker Park with the family and ride the train, PB&J's for lunch at home, nap, Alamo Drafthouse for dinner and a movie with Robin, come home and watch tv til bed.
Unrealistically: wake up at 7 a.m., drive with Robin to the airport with only the clothes on our backs, fly to New York, pig out for lunch at Lombardi's, take a nap in Central Park and maybe make out a while :-), go shopping for an outfit for dinner down 5th Ave. and let Robin buy anything she wants, eat at Daniel (famous French restaurant owned by Daniel Boulud), walk back to our hotel, Hotel Plaza Athenee, and open a bottle of Pernod. After that, who knows.
What's your favorite thing about Taylor?
My favorite thing about Taylor is that he treats me, and has always treated me like a brother. We have a very close relationship, despite living a part for many years and seeing life in 2 different ways.
What's your dream job?
Photographer for National Geographic.
What's the best gift you've ever given?
Life.
