Our Lady of the Ladle

The wisdom of America's first TV chef, Julia Child:

• "The only time to eat diet food is while you're waiting for the steak to cook."
• "How can a nation be called great if its bread tastes like Kleenex?"
• "I think every woman should have a blowtorch."
• "I enjoy cooking with wine, sometimes I even put it in the food I'm cooking."
• "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?"
• "Life itself is the proper binge."

And, when asked what was the secret of her long life, she replied "Red meat and gin."

An incredible woman...
