This is the worst cooking show on youtube!! 🔰 Side note ... when I was in college I shopped at the same Montecito grocery store as Julia Child. She would come over to my cart and ask, “now what do you plan on making with these ingredients.” After doing this regularly I had the ingredients for a cobbler and she said, “that sounds unique and delicious. Would you show me how to make that?” So I went over and cooked with Julia Child!! I should add that while in college I was the chauffeur to her neighbor so I was not a complete stranger to Julia Child after I explained why I looked familiar. She said of my cobbler, “your execution is atrocious but your results are astounding.” Seems I fail to follow the proper rules of baking.

The Cruising Kiwis Oh yes, we cooked many times. The first time I made cobbler but she planned dinner. I started talking about Puerto Rican food (my mother is from there) and the herb recao which is used in sofrito. So I came over again to make sofrito with her. She was fascinated that there was an herb she had not used. She was riveted when anyone talked about food. Her husband was very funny. Quiet until he blurted out a punchline. I remember he became ill after I graduated. I fixed their car a couple times too. I think she lived part time in France and when they returned to CA I would get their cars back into shape.

@@OnTourWithPattiSmith what an amazing time that must have been, thank you for sharing your stories. I hope Julia liked your Sofrito? Our only knowledge of Julia Child is through the film Julie and Julia. How close was Meryle Streeps version of Julia to the real thing?

The Cruising Kiwis Well I think the film portrayed two parts of her personality well. I think about the first time in the grocery that she came right up to me ... that fearless connection to people thru food, that came across in the film. Her curiosity was portrayed in the film ... she asked “how will I know if your sofrito is especially good? I have no idea what it is.” I told her, “you will know.” When we finished she dipped a spoon into the sofrito and tasted it, “there are so many layers of flavors. Amazing. We have to prepare a dish with these marvelous flavors.” Then I pulled out a jar of commercially sold “sofrito” and I said, “I have never tasted this because I do not know anyone who buys this product.” After she tasted it she said, “this does not make me want to cook anything!” What was not portrayed in the film ... she was a very sophisticated woman disguised a bit with her being boisterous and funny, but she saw everything and said nothing. We had never discussed me being gay, I never did anything to disguise it. The first time I fixed her car it was a flat tire. I arrived to drive her neighbors to LAX in the limousine, I parked my car across the street and she was in her driveway I asked if she was ok and she replied, “oh, I have to call the tow company there is a flat tire.” I told her not to bother. If her other car was working and she could wait until I returned from LAX I would fix the tire for her in the afternoon. I put the spare on took the flat to be patched and repaired then put it back in place. She came out when I was finished, “my goodness it is amazing. You’ve proven you can cook and now you’ve proven you can fix a car. We are going to have to find a gentleman for you that can truly appreciate your vast range of talents.” I smiled and said, “well you just do that.” This was the 1980’s ... she was well into her 70’s. Just like that complete acceptance without judgement. She knew I was graduating. She called the school to find out the time and location. I never would think to invite her but she was there. I never mentioned her to my parents, they were just dropjawed when I introduced her. And since I asked her I will tell you that she thought the Saturday Night Live skit of her was just the funniest thing. “Utterly hilarious” she said. Also cooking was about socializing for her. Her husband would sit there in the kitchen while we were chopping and cooking. To this day I love being in the kitchen while everyone is cooking together.

I hear you Marion. Ivan's not a big seafood fan either, it may grow on him, it did me. As for Rob, I'm not sure his food choices are about flavour.
