"The Last Supper"

Where does the time go?  My lack of posting borders on embarrassing, although I think we are all too familiar with the fleeting of time as of late.  It will not get any easier, I surmise.
I am on my last day of a 35 day work run-similar to the last post. 35 days of lunches and dinners, sometimes both in the same day, ranging from 2 people to 100.  It is no holds barred time to showcase food at its best, with a measure of elegant restraint.  Needless to say, it is a challenge to come up with non-repeating appetizers, entrees and desserts everyday.  Add personal "preferences," and you've got a recipe for a marathon!
My friend gave me his collection of cookbooks to peruse.  He tells me I remind him of a mixture of Alain Passard and Eric Ripert, but with my own style.  What an amazing compliment!  This morning, I opened up the first of them with a cup of tea.
Humbly, I indeed saw myself, and every other chef I know, amongst the pages.  There, nestled in the recipes, I drew a final breath of inspiration to conjure up my last magical meal for two very special clients~

Here's to crossing the finish line!!!
