With enough butter, anything is good
Julia Child
Image
The main thing is to have a gutsy approach and use your head.

No one's more important than people.

Romance is the icing but love is the cake.

Eating is the secret to good cooking.
Julia Child

Cooking well doesn't mean cooking fancy.

Until I discovered cooking, I was never really interested in anything.

People who love to eat are always the best people.
Julia Child

My mother was independent. She had grown up in Dalton and Pittsfield, in western Massachusetts, and she was one of the first women drivers in that area.

The problem for cookery-bookery writers like me is to understand the extent of our readers' experience. I hope have solved that riddle in my books by simply telling everything. The experienced cook will know to skip through the verbiage, but the explanations will be there for those who still need them.

I was thirty-seven years old and still discovering who I was.
