David K SmithDave's husband Sam died, leaving him as a single parent to a hungry young boy. Cooking and a love of food have been helping them get through things together. Dave is well-known on Twitter as @professor_dave, where he has shared the journey of his famly life, engaging his many thousands of followers. His first book, the acclaimed 'tw-eat', and the sequel 'tw-eat more' each present around 100 of his favourite family recipes, many of which he has shared on Twitter.
