“The only real stumbling block is fear of failure. In cooking you’ve got to have a what-the-hell attitude”.
“The best way to execute French cooking is to get good and loaded and whack the hell out of a chicken. Bon appétite”.
“Learn how to cook – try new recipes, learn from your mistakes, be fearless and above all have fun”.
“I think careful cooking is love, don’t you? The loveliest thing you can cook for someone who’s close to you is about as nice a Valentine as you can give”.
“Cooking is like love; it should be entered into with abandon or not at all.”
“You don’t have to cook fancy or complicated masterpieces — just good food from fresh ingredients.”
“Always remember: If you’re alone in the kitchen and you drop the lamb, you can always just pick it up. Who’s going to know?”
“Find something you are passionate about and keep tremendously interested in it.”
Happy Birthday Julia. Thank you for the many years of enjoyment you brought to so many.
