Thinking of her as I eat my fine ripe summer peach this morning.
I may take my also-deceased mother's copy of The Art of French Cooking off the shelf and rustle up something special. Wonder what would honor them the most? What to nibble in Julia's memory? "John D.

How sad. All my life, my mother used Julia's Mastering the Art of French
Cooking, and that was one of my first cookbooks when I set up housekeeping. I loved watching her on TV, and how she could rise above even an apparent disaster on camera with relaxed aplomb. I think my favorite moment of watching Julia Child's TV shows was when, after putting together her Mont Saint Michel Gateau of apples and crepes, she whipped out a blow torch to carmelize the sugar topping. Just this week, I baked an old favorite for my mother's birthday cake from Mastering the Art of French Cooking. It was one of the first cakes I learned how to bake, and I'm so glad I did. The Biscuit au Buerre has been a reliable favorite dessert in our family for decades. Julia, may you now be cooking in the kitchen of your dreams, with all your favorite ingredients fresh, flavorful and right at hand. I think the food in the afterlife has just become more delicious. But down on Earth, we will miss you and your wonderful hooty voice sorely. Adieu and Bon Appetit, Dear Julia.

Well, I packed her books away, and now I am cursing myself for doing so. I do have copies of some of her recipes, and I think I will cook them this weekend. Probably on Sunday. I have her Steak Diane version, which I always liked. I just got a whole chicken from the market, so I could roast a chicken in her honor. Julia also taught me to make puff pastry, and I am toying with the idea of making some this weekend, and using it as a tart shell. Anyone else planning on cooking Julia's recipes this weekend?

Certainly it was after 91 years of butter. Felice |

LOL I saw that show. In fact, it drew my interest because I had just recently had my first experience with monkfish. My wife had brought some home from the local fish market. The fish monger hd referred to it as the poor man's lobster, but I don't know why. It wasn't much cheaper than lobster. At any rate, what I saw being cooked and served were two lovely chunks of fish that had a slight resemblance to lobster, in looks, texture and taste. But it was on Julia's show that I discovered what a foul looking creature the monkfish is. I am pretty adventurous when it comes to food, but I have to admit that it was better for me and my appreciation of monkfish to have tasted it before seeing one. |

I loved her - remember watching her on PBS when I was about 7 or 8. My favorite episode was when she was showing how to split a chicken and she said "You just give it a whack with your cleaver - WHACK! WHACK!" as she hit the chicken really hard with the cleaver. My brother and I laughed our butts off. She's no doubt instrumental in spiking my love of cooking. -L. |
