I am sure you know that Julia Child’s TV kitchen is preserved at the Smithsonian. This is an article about the kitchen, with some memories of Julia Child by the author. There is a picture of the kitchen with all its equipment, itemized and explained. There is a bit about the colors it was painted.

Enjoy.

I was watching one of her old PBS shows recently, noticing the stove on the set was the typical electric stove with coil burners. She certainly didn't need any fancy equipment to cook with.

Even though I never once cooked any of her recipes, I always watched her show, "The French Chef." She was so interesting and entertaining.

She did convice me to buy a stock pot.

This made me think of the restaurant in Napa inspired by her at Copia. I haven’t been to v2 Copia, but it is a food, wine, and art museum. They have cooking classes, wine tastings, and exhibits about food. And am huge outdoor space and garden. They had a permanent exhibit on the history of American food.

In v1 I went a few times for my birthday. We got snacks at Julia’s Kitchen. Did a class on wine tasting. And one time there was a cheese tasting. As well as chips and salsa. But what was most hilarious is that we ended up with a new friend. This was when I was in my mid-20s, and there was a little girl who was maybe 5 or so, who decided my sister (also 20s) were her new bffs. She abandoned her parents and followed us around the whole day.

Lydia Bastianich, is also a very good cooking show. Sometimes she has her 90 year old mother on.....she is a hoot.

loved the movie with Meryl Streep and the book, My Life in France. Truly a legacy. She lived her last days in Santa Barbara and was a friend to all.
