Life Lessons from Julia Child & How to Flip an Omelette

juliaquote2

Lately I’ve been reading As Always, Julia: The Letters of Julia Child and Avis DeVotoand the more I hear her voice in those letters, the more I completely love her and am inspired to be myself. Just be myself. And so, as I mentioned earlier this week, I become more in awe of a woman who adored food, determined to understand how to cook well as inspired by the French and didn’t edit who she was. With a few quotes for inspiration in this penultimate post of TSLL French Week, as well as a video of how to make an omelette from her PBS cooking series The French Chef (she has a great trick for how to practice the omelette flip that looks so complicated and it involves . . . beans! Take a look.), I thought this a fitting way to wrap up the week and perhaps provide breakfast inspiration for tomorrow morning. Bon appétit!

~The Omelette episode is in season #9, episode #18
