    I loved that woman. I remember her designing a kitchen for This Old House not that long ago. The woman never really ever retired.

    She was quite a gal alright! And as someone has said---she never did retire---always active and productive! She won't be forgotten.

    Julia Child was a remarkable and admirable woman, who worked in many ways to make the world a better place.

    Did you know that she worked for the OSS during the second World War?

    One quote from Child may sum up her philosophy: "In spite of food fads, fitness programs and health concerns, we must never lose sight of a beautifully conceived meal."

    "It's so beautifully arranged on the plate ? you know someone's fingers have been all over it."
