Well I see on Yahoo that Julia Child has Died. I’m sorry to see that. The world needs more people like her, who are celebratory, positive and not trying to cause anyone else any grief.

It’s interesting that the article I linked to says she moved to Santa Barbara in 2001. I know for a fact that she lived here, at least part time, for many years before that. In 1988, I attended a party at the home of my employer, attorney Barry Cappello. The house was a rambling and beautiful Tudor in the Hope Ranch section of Santa Barbara. It had previously belonged to Julia Child.

The way I picture heaven, there’s no need for food up there. But bon appetit anyway.
