Book Review - My Life in France by Julia Child and Alex Prud'homme

All foodies must read this book! I'm always sad to see a wonderful book end, but especially was saddened to finish this one. All through the story, I could hear Julia's lovely lilting voice talking to me about her truly remarkable life. Following her husband to France where he worked as a civil servant, Julia's life was completely changed. I didn't know that she was basically a non-cook when she fell in love with French cuisine. Taking to French cooking with absolute intensity and study, she rapidly became a true gourmet. The book, which was co-written with the help of her nephew, completely captures the warmth and intelligence of both Paul and Julia Child. What a treasure they were to our country and our world.
