The only real stumbling block is fear of failure. In cooking you’ve got to have a what-the-hell attitude.
It’s the 109th birthday of Julia Child – Chef, Spy, Philosopher and in my opinion, one of the greatest Americans of the last century.
Besides Julia’s, today is the birthday of Napoleon Bonaparte (1769),
Rose Marie (1925),
Oscar Peterson (1925),
Linda Ellerbee (1944), (possibly the second greatest living American)
Jimmy Webb (1946),
Oh, and my friend Liz
(but she knows how old she is.)
And so it goes.
