Yes, I was really interested in the learning sessions, great discussions, and meeting some familiar names at the Hypertext 2008 conference, but the food was a big part of it for me too. Can’t come back home to plain chicken after the excellent meals I’ve had this weekend–and, after studying Mark Bernstein’s fine taste in wine and repast and seeing so many mouth-watering recipes he so willingly shares. One wonders if Tinderbox is used for his recipe file.
