Eating is the secret to good cooking.
Julia Child

We had a happy marriage because we were together all the time. We were friends as well as husband and wife. We just had a good time.
Julia Child
Image
The dinner hour is a sacred, happy time when everyone should be together and relaxed.

I don't think about whether people will remember me or not. I've been an ok person. I've learned a lot. I've taught people a thing or two. That's what's important.
