Dorma wrote a few notes and said “Grant is an exceptional talent. But unlike a lot of new chef’s, he isn’t arrogant. And he prefers his art to be a collaborative effort, which means he will do truly amazing things I think. This dish is not representative of his work, but I imagine he lowered the level to better sell us… me… on the creator.” She sipped her wine and then said “When he lands somewhere and is working on his own, we should get all of us together and go to dinner. I think both offices would really enjoy that.”

Cort smiled at her. “You know, I think that’s a great idea. It sure beats trying to schedule things otherwise. If were all going, it’s easy,” he said with a chuckle.

“So, anything else you do for fun, when you’re not cooking? And yes, I realize how silly that might sounds given we’ve both been talking about having little down time,” he said with a grin.

She shook her head. “Not really, no. I read the occasional holonovel, a vid here and there. Bot other than that? Work. Cook. Sleep. And not necessarily in that order or frequency.” and she chuckled. “What about you?”

“Mostly training at the gym. It’s honestly how I keep myself sane most days. But I used to do triathlons. Been awhile since I’ve done one since Oed doesn’t have the surface water to make the longer ones doable. But there’s a sprint and shorter super sprint coming up. Someone I met at the gym was trying to convince me to go for it, but the amount of training time, even for these shorter ones is pretty intense.” Cort shrugged. “I’m undecided at this point. I think I want to see how things are after the gala so I can gauge what is doable.”
