Hi,my real name is Kevin(not draper10701,surprise!)In the last couple of years,I accomplished a long-time goal by completing the culinary training program at the Institute of Culinary Education in NYC.I am now getting paid for doing something I've been doing as recreation for as long as I can remember. I love to read,enjoy amateur astronomy,and cooking for family and friends. My favorite how-to's are what I call "better mousetraps"(ie. a simpler way to do a common task).
