Recipe: Provencal tomato spread for Julia Child

katflinn · August 15, 2018 · 8 Comments

Hanging out with Jacques

katflinn · October 14, 2011 · 8 Comments

Sometimes, you just have those pinch-me-is-this-really-happening experiences. Such a moment happened on the first official day of the book tour just before I went to speak at one of my favorite bookstores, R.J. Julia Booksellers in Madison, Conn.
