She was part of a secret mission to destroy Hitler using sumptuous dishes made with absurd amounts of butter.

Is this a theme in the upcoming biopic of her starring Streep?

Is Paula Dean now carrying on that mission?

I'm sure there's an eggs Benedict joke in there somewhere.

This is old news. VERY old news.

I loved Julia. I thought it was so great that she was this fabulous, iconic chef and yet, from time to time, she liked nothing better than a McDonald's Happy Meal! (Although she declared "In and Out Burgers" to be the best fast-food restaurants.)

And who could forget "I just cut the dickens out of my finger!"

"Be on your guard! Jerks on the loose!"

Good for her! I can't quite picture it--let's face it, she wasn't going to be able to sneak up on anyone--but good for her!

Did anyone else ever wonder what it would have been like to hear her sing Leonard Bernstein's "I Can Cook Too"?

Nice-now she is even sexier in my mind.

She was the first person I ever touched myself to!
