I didn't know I was going to write it. I'm supposed to my cookbook. My cookbook is coming out next. This is my memoir. I want to tell you everything how I fail and talk about a lot of failures in there.
Let's go to Call Me Chef, Dammit. We've teased it a little bit. That's the title of the book.
I put a book out talking about everything from 911 to the Pentagon, which the book got appellate for number one for dealing with suicide, grief, leadership.
The book just has a collaboration of things that I literally believe in. It puts anecdotes with my cooking skill sets inside of it to lead up into the cookbook.
I'm going to make sure I get all of the connections to the book because it is life changing. It's insightful. Some things I didn't know about you. I thought I knew almost everything about you. But some things are in there.
