Today is a very important day in History! Yes, August 15th, 2012, is the 100th Birthday of Julia Child! Of course everyone at Alfred A. Knopf ( Random House ) is totally proud of this event because they’re the ones who published her Cookbook, ”Mastering The Art of French Cooking”, almost 51 years ago. The book has now become a total classic and is still a bestseller to this day. It became iconic for it’s use of very detailed illustrations that helped many people learn how to cook. One interesting side note is that Google posted a wonderful image of her today for their logo ( see pic down below ). In closing, Thank You for everything you taught us Julia Child. You are deeply missed by millions of people and will always be a true Icon and a National Treasure, “Bon Appetit!”

Everyone at Random House Publishing is totally freaking out because Julia Child’s 100th Birthday Celebration is in just a few days, on August 15th, to be exact! This lady is a true National Treasure ( Her original Kitchen was moved & donated to the Smithsonian Museum! ) & her books on “Mastering The Art of French Cooking” are required reading for any Serious Foodie. Also, check out this “Julia Child” store display seen very recently at a Barnes and Noble Bookstore, how cool is that?!!
