Opening Day

It is all happening. The past three days have been filled with what seems like non stop photo shot.. http://www.dmcimages.com/ The photographer and myself staged 4 different shoots at 4 different locations in 3 days. We used friends houses (real cool ones) that each had a different look. I got a florist (another friend( to supply flowers) and each host to allow me to use their china and flatware for different shots. It was amazing a lot of work but I think we got some awesome shots. David said he was planning on 4oo and got over 600. The book is scheduled to be out by the end of May......"Cooking with Clive" ...recipes for life a practical easy to read approach to life and the kitchen. Most of the chapters have been written...Opening line "Whats a good Jewish boy like you doing in the kitchen?" The book goes through my childhood and shows how I was influenced by my family to enter the restaurant business. A mother who was an actress and a Chemical Engineer as a father produces a chef/restaurateur. One section (who knows how many chapters will be devoted to the 9 lessons I learnt from the restaurant business. Only 6 weeks ago I was complaining about my direction in life and how I could never write a book..Now its almost written and ready for major editing....
