RIP, Julia

RIP, Julia

: Julia Child, who taught America how to cook, has died.

Here, at Epicurious, was one of the service’s first cool icons — in the days when cool icons were cool: An actual-size Xerox of Julia’s hand. No nicks, no cuts, all fingers in place.

: Ken Layne’s farewell:

Julia Child died in her sleep just a few days before her 92nd birthday, proving once again that eating well & drinking buckets of wine will give you a long, happy life.
