Today would have been
Julia Child's 100th Birthday.
In 1999,
I had the honor of seeing her and getting her autograph at a book signing event for
Julia and Jacques
Cooking at Home
As a child, Julia lived in my hometown and we attended the same school.
(different years :)
I just happen to be in Pasadena and at 7:00 tonight there will be a city-wide toast to her
Cheers Julia!
One of my fondest memories is going to see Julie and Julia with my best friend and we immediately went to buy her cookbook after the move. A few weeks later we got together and made boeuf bourguignon together for our hubbys
ReplyDeleteAn amazing memory Alexis. This quote reminds me of you:

Cheers!
Very very cool. How wonderful to have met her and share the same school as her.
