A personal essay from Kate Lowenstein, the wife and partner of Senior Culinary Director Daniel Gritzer, about what it's like to be married to a professional cooking maniac.
Kate Lowenstein is a writer and editor in New York City. She's currently the editor-in-chief at VICE.It's a Wednesday afternoon just before Christmas, and Daniel and I are stuck in heavy traffic in an Uber going home to Queens. He's just woken up from anesthesia, and his right arm is strapped into an absurdly huge foam box, more arm-chair than cast, intended to protect his newly operated-on wrist.
A month after we first started dating, Daniel and I traveled to my mother's house in Northampton, Massachusetts, for a weekend in the country. The plan was to impress my mom and her partner, Felix, with a memorable Saturday-night dinner. And, with Daniel by my side, I was certain that this meal—the first we would cook together—would be wildly successful, and maybe even a touch romantic.
Surely, I thought, this was when Daniel would simmer down. I'd never dated anyone foolish enough not to backpedal as soon as my rage boiled over, which it had a way of doing every now and then. Surely, as previous boyfriends had done, he'd come to see my temper as just another lovable feature, a by-product of my red hair, a counterpoint to my laid-back vibe.
