color=#0000ff size=2>As lead cook, I would like to second and third all the
people mentioned below, but I would add that Richard did more than a little of
everything. He shopped ahead of time, he did a large portion of the set up, he
chopped vegetables, he cut chicken, he cooked vegetables, he manned the grill
for the chicken, and he worked both Saturday night and Sunday for the
cleanup.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV id=RTEContent>No feast is done by one person, and this feast is no
exception. Without the support of these wonderful gentles I am listing below
feast would not have been the success it was.</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>Caelin, a thank you is not enough. Without your support and guidance this
feast simply would not have happened. You were the master and I was the student
during this feast. Thank you!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Pyro, thank you for all the cleaning, loading, unloading, chopping of
onions and cooking. You contribution made it easier for everyone. Thank
you!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Aislyn, the real success regarding the chocolate cake was the home
made frosting made on sight by you. Thank you for working so hard all day on the
chocolate cake icing and helping with all the other cooking. Your contribution,
and constantly putting water and diet coke in my hands made the day easier for
us all. Thank you!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Fearghu! s, what can I say but you are a master vegetable
chopper. Thank you!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Inez, who literally cleaned pots and pans all day and stuffed all
those chicken breasts. Even though you were in pain you still made a great
contribution to the feast. Thank you!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Barbara, sorry I don't know how to spell you sca name. Thank you for
constantly cleaning the dirty utensils, pots and pans and then chopping
mushrooms and preparing the salad. I am astonished by your tireless energy.
Thank you!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Siobhann, thank you for jumping in and helping in the kitchen and your
masterful preparation of the salad course. I salute your ability to make salad
without direction. Thank you!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Arias, who after fighting all day helped in the kitchen by cutting up the
beef and helped in the preparation of the courses. Thank you for jumping in even
after you were tired and your knee was hurt! ing you. Thank you!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Theresa, who changed clothes not only to help cook, but also watched
several pots, helped in the preparation of the courses, and the actual cooking.
Without your participation I would still be watching a pot of rice. Thank
you!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Elizabeth, for showing Caelin and myself the mysterious art of baking
brownies and cakes. Without your knowledge and mentoring the 36 layers of the
chocolate cake would not have been completed so easily. Thank you!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Daniel, thank you for making all those grocery runs for those things we
needed during the day.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Armand and Ameline, thank you for serving the high table and
the general populace. Thank you!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Genvieve 2.0, thank you for helping with the loading of the feast
stuff on Sunday morning.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I would also like to thank Dolphin, Chandra and Gw! enneth for coming in
and volunteering from outside of your group. Your contribution made it easier on
all of us and Chandra's skills as head server were invaluable.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thank you to all those feast servers who sacrificed their time to serve
this feast. It is one thing to cook a feast and it quite another to deliver it
to the populace. Without your efforts people would not have gotten their food in
a timely fashion.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>For all those I have forgotten, a very special thank you as you made the
feast move forward smoothly. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.</DIV>
