Thanks so much for a labor of love....I can't imagine how much time you spent for all of our love of food...I think it is fascinating to watch the progression of changes in the menus that have taken over through the years.....I think it has changed with the way we think about food...and to cook for that many people, and to do it impressively as they do is super amazing....Now, I wonder if they have lobster on the New England cruises....:) Lets see, I figure I can get it at least once a day for a week.....If I am lucky, maybe more....oh yeh, and mussels too.....:) Thank you so much.

Congrats on this big project ! Just think of all the salivating people reading all these menus. The next cruise in the beginning of Dec. is the Panama Canal sailing on the Coral Princess. I was hoping to get a California Coastal cruise in October but a friend who was going to travel with me had a medical issue so we haven't booked it yet. After she is cleared there may not be availability on the cruise. I am looking at other cruises for April and June. Slim pickings for Carib in April 2014.

Sorry I took so long to respond to your post Sali. I thought I had already answered you, but saw that I had not. I was quite an undertaking......too bad that people just let it fade into "never land". Glad to see that you are still cruising, but sorry to here about your friend. Hope all is better. Really, we would love for you to take a trip towards Chicago and stay with us... we are only an hour away and would gladly have you stay and even pick you up at the airport if need be.

Until we are walking the same planks again.
