Words of Wisdom


"Certainly one of the most important requirements for learning how to cook is you also learn how to eat... Finally, I do think that the way to a full and healthy life is to adopt the sensible system of "small helpings, no seconds, no snacking, and a little bit of everything. Above all - have a good time! Toujour bon appetit!" ~ Julia Child

I believe the reason why so many people love Julia Child is because she makes it looks possible for a normal person to cook something amazing. But it was more than that, she was real. She was not afraid to simply be herself. She did not allow mistakes to dominate her life.

My husband gave me Mastering the Art of French Cooking for Christmas. There will be ridiculous amounts of cooking going on when we get back from the holidays. Yum!
