I grew up loving Reubens, fully prepared (both grilled and baked). In 1997 (when Tiger Woods was winning his first Masters), we were in upstate New York. There was a place in Ithaca that made the best vegan Reubens, OMG. I got like five to go when we left.
And to anyone who puts tempeh on a sandwich they call a "reuben," I'll see you in Hell!

• What is the one thing that you own that you should really throw out?
If it was up to Anne, these pants.
Anne is the least sentimental person I know. She is constantly looking to get rid of stuff. If we haven't used something in a year, it is out the door! But for years, I've worn these pants every day it is under 80 and they're just now getting good.
