Happy 100th Birthday, Julia Child

Yesterday was the 100th birthday of Julia Child.
While in Arizona, I borrowed my in-laws car to run an errand by myself. I was listening to NPR on my way back home and they played a segment of one of Julia's shows. Hearing her voice made me tear up. You could just hear the joy in her voice and understand what kind of a woman she was. For me, listening to her talk about things of the kitchen made me want to rush home and whip up a 7 course meal including with the most amazing dessert you've ever had. This is a woman who continues to inspire. She makes me proud to be a woman of the kitchen and a Bachelors of Arts Degree holder of the Culinary Arts.
Thanks Julia. In honor of you, some fun culinary school memories.

  1. I'm so proud of you. What a wonderful tribute! You are a fantastic "woman of the kitchen". I aspire to be like you :)
    I do have a question: the first picture--that's not ecoli is it?? Ha ha! Just kidding. I think speaking french must be a requirement for any chef. Maybe I should start there. He he
