I thought today after reading the Judith Jones article you gave a direction to that Julia Child has had so much written about here she would comment that she isn't Lincoln or Grant! ..every year a new in-depth review of one part of her life pops up in similarity to theirs. I just know that those who knew her revered her. These women chefs had just spent time with her a few weeks before her passing and shared she was still concerned about eating something tasty despite her doctor's restrictions! We were in San Francisco at a weekend culinary program so celebrated her life by cooking and eating a beautiful meal after shopping in the open market at the Ferry Landing.

I tried the link on your all time favorite guide in Florence...which linked me to the Judith Jones article on LitHub. I wonder if you could share the intended link? Thank you!

I was super excited for Julia too! I couldn’t get through it either. I finally started Impeachment & THAT is not putting me to sleep.
