I have never met Drew Bennett in person. We had a few opportunities at various conferences but never could quite get the timing down. I have a feeling we’d hit it off pretty well. We not only share the same first name, but so do our wives. (No, our wives are not called Andrew. They’re both called Allison.)

Even through some of her darkest hours, Alison still manages to find time to smile. She …
If they’re good enough for Jerry Seinfeld, they’re good enough for you. Yes, the black and white, only the most tastastic cookie around. Personally, I love the black and white. I’m an equal opportunist. My wife just likes the vanilla so I often find myself eating simply chocolate halves. Allie’s been on a cookie kick of late, and I’m loving every minute of it.
