The Fuss Pot Dictator

She called him the Fuss-Pot Dictator because he had detailed requirements for everything he ingested. For example tea had to be piping hot but then he requested an ice cube to drop into it. No meat floating in soup. No fish period due to childhood trauma about fish bones. No magenta foods. The list was so long Eloise was stymied but she loved him and although she grew up cooking and baking in her families Greek restaurant through her teens she was now under strict surveillance by her husband in her home kitchen.
