Bringing Breakfast Back
Breakfast has always been a tough thing for me to do. Especially in adulthood. I mean, I know that I SHOULD eat breakfast but knowing that you should do something and actually doing it...
The Ultimate Collection of Recipes Celebrating Julia Child
Before I was interested in cooking, the parodies of Julia Child on Saturday Night Live made me laugh and laugh. I thought that she was funny and the people who portrayed her were funny as well.
However after a while I figured out that she must be someone pretty important if they had her on television. Years later I happened to catch her on show and I was fascinated. I found her fascinating and all things cooking suddenly seemed more exciting to me.
When I first bought my house, I started making recipes from her cookbooks and invited friends over. They were time consuming but absolutely delicious. I really began to enjoy the complexity of cooking as well as the simple items I could cook as well. Honestly it no mystery why I married a chef. There is just something about a man who not only loves to cook but is really great at it as well.
When the movie and book Julie & Julia came out, I was enamored with Julia Child all over again and in fact I started blogging but not solely about food.
Julia Child would have been 102 this August and this collection that I curated is a tribute to her and her amazing recipes. It is also a tribute to her character and how fun she really made cooking. No one has been as inspiring or creative since Julia and while there are many amazing chefs today, no one really compares to Julia.
Enjoy and Bon Appetit!

I have recently began enjoying cooking. I like to experiment and try new recipes. I have never attempted Julia Childs yet. I just must have too!
For some reason, I haven’t attempted any Julia Child recipes either, though I have laughed at those SNL skits many times. 🙂 I’m going to have to give her a try too.
Love her and her amazing recipes! They’re absolutely delicious.
She was one fun lady! I never realized how tall she was until I watched Julie and Julia. This makes me want to go watch the SNL Skits 🙂 Bon Appétit!!!
She was simply awesome, wasn’t she? Such a tough and savvy lady! I wish I had 1/4 of her skills in the kitchen!
I loved those shows with Julia Child. She was so entertaining
