For the last time. I will walk to Le Cordon Bleu. Put on my uniform. And cook. Today is a great end. But an even bigger beginning.
Life as you’ve read over the past eight months. Will never be again as of 12:50 p.m. Handing in my final dish I will remember Chef Stril’s first lesson on how to cut a carrot. To Chef Tivet’s wacky Coq au Vin. All the way through Chef Clergue and Terrien’s brilliance in Superior.
One of life’s milestones. Laid forever.
Thursday LCB will host our final graduation ceremony at one of Paris’ most prestigious social halls, Cercle de l'Union Interalliée. My brother and sister-in-law have already arrived. And James is due in on Tuesday. To help celebrate a victorious end.

I'm glad you will have family there to share in your joy. We will be there in spirit. Love, Paul & Becky
ReplyDeleteBy now you have reached that end. After graduation, you will close that door and open the connecting one that will lead you down the new path surrounded by loved ones and the knowledge that you can do anything you set your mind to. Do you know how few people can actually say that? So many young people do not know that sentence. You will make your choice and it will happen!! Congratulations.
