...sort of not caring too much about a career path and having it turn out to be precisely what we were after all along,” Matt says, who graduated with a degree in the history of art and architecture (then called fine arts). Now the Lee brothers wander in and out of the best kitchens in Manhattan, observing chefs and divulging the secret behind creations such as, say, Tuscan duck l’orange.

If the deer wander back this week, they could see more of the same, that is if Spirit--which has been operating splendidly but has not yet budged from the safety of its landing platform--at last rolls cautiously down onto the red Martian...
