Aug. 13th, 2004 10:49 amFull of sadness I come. Julia Child has passed away at age 91, two days before her 92nd birthday. What a spectacular woman. She was the first celebrity I remember meeting, and I remember standing in line at Brentano's (I was about four, I think) in my best sparkly party dress and tiara, because I had to be beautiful to meet Julia Child. She was a breast cancer survivor and an inspiration to a lot of people. She lived a full life and died in her sleep, so it is mete that we celebrate her, more than that we mourn her. She was funny and warm and beautiful and special and she will be deeply missed.
