Congrats on finding this nugget. If you get a chance to read Julia Child's memoir "My Life in France", published posthumously and edited by her nephew check it out too. She had such an interesting life and a great sense of humor.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10211857370548116268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880603295507070479.post-85127302773294233482008-11-10T18:11:00.000-06:002008-11-10T18:11:00.000-06:00The food gods are looking down upon you.

I've only used it a few times (because most things we learned in school) But it's such a great resource for things. I'm glad you have these now :)Nikki @ NikSnackshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09756950048513201740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880603295507070479.post-21592630400400525342008-11-10T07:51:00.000-06:002008-11-10T07:51:00.000-06:00Kick it Old Skool with Julia.

I'm going to tackle some of Julia Child's books very soon...but for today...I had my trip to Costco and of course came home with a new one - Ina Garten's new book.gizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03909193699597525772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880603295507070479.post-85149258420761104562008-11-09T20:16:00.000-06:002008-11-09T20:16:00.000-06:00What a lucky find Kat!

That's great you found hard-covers. I hate soft-cover cookbooks!

I'd say that I learned to cook from <I>Mastering the Art</I> -- while I'd been cooking on my own for the better part of a year before acquiring my copy, it was from Julia Child that I started really to learn about how cooking works as opposed to just following recipes. It was these books that made me interested enough in cooking to read food blogs.<BR/><BR/>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
