Julia Child has passed away. I raise my bottle of cooking sherry to toast a very influential woman. She made dinner, art. Died in her sleep at 91. Cheers

Ah, to a wonderful icon.

A grand old dame.

I just saw her with Jacques Pipin on the food channel. She didn't look a day over 89. I used to watch her show as a kid.Very entertaining.She was a great lady and will be missed.

I always liked watching her. She would make such a mess when she cooked which is something I always felt I could do with the same ease.

Bon Appetit Julia!

I must admitt that watching her for so many years was the inspiration for may of my dishes. It is a sad day for us all--she was a whoot to watch

not only was she entertaining and a good cook, she was also a bona fide spy. She was an agent in the OSS (the fore runner of today's CIA) during World War II.

darogle---I'm curious.CIA stands for Central Intelligence Agency,as far as I
know.Do you know,what "OSS" stands for? Irish
P.S.I'm not being a smartass,I really don't know!
