In the kitchen with Julia

I made mac and cheese last night and when I went to dish it out it seemed just a little dry to me. But I remembered this quote from Julia Child and said nothing. The retired-guy was just about done the meal and he said "This was great." Then I said, "A bit dry". He replied, "I loved it."
End of story.

I have a couple of Julia's cookbooks and I also enjoyed her book about her life with cats.
She adored them and the book really shows you the soft side of this remarkable woman.

Her cats were always in the kitchen as she cooked. The story is based mostly around one very special cat named Minette.
They met in Paris; Julia was cooking and Minette was hunting mice. They
developed a bond that was unbreakable.

Our kitchen cat, Sierra would have loved knowing Julia.
And Julia would have loved her.

If you are looking for a book to add to your library, pick this one up. It is filled with rare, personal photos of Julia and the fortunate cats that crossed her path.

My favorite JC quote...
"A party without cake is really just a meeting."

hugs, Deb
