Celebrity Anecdote #1
Julia Child died. I've never dug her cooking - not very inspired, too old school, no spices. But she's been the source of one of my favorite impersonations, "Julia Child/Sex Fiend-Racist." Not that she was either. But I got the idea from an episode when she was cooking with Madhur Jaffrey (I think it was her) and said about the color of the food: what an interesting color, dearie. The color was maybe brown. So I added: what an interesting color, dearie, just like the color of your skin. Yah. That led to: reminds of a cabana boy I did in Portugal when my husband was in the army...Track me down, and I'll do it for you one day. The voice makes it all come alive.
