She cooked great recipes in that? Now I know what my problem is, I have way too many gizmos to be a great chef..

Julia now has a wine dedicated to her...a lovely rose! Like she would care. She'd drink vinegar and think it was great!

In celebration of the 90th birthday of our beloved honorary trustee, Julia Child, COPIA is proud to present Frivolités, a sparkling rosé. For nearly a half-century, Julia has embroidered her no-nonsense culinary philosophy with frivolities. So, in 2002 we commemorate America's grande dame of the kitchen with this one-of-a-kind rosé produced for COPIA by Domaine Carneros, owned by renowned champagne producer, Taittinger. Made in the traditional Méthode Champenoise, this lovely sparkling wine pleases the senses with opulent fruit, cherry mousse and brilliant color.

Sales of Frivolités help to establish the new COPIA Culinary Arts Program Endowment.

Hospital Stay Can't Curb Julia Child's Appetite

Monday, December 02, 2002
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. — Gourmet chef Julia Child's knee-replacement rehabilitation hasn't curbed her appetite: her favorite In-N-Out burgers, as well as roasted chicken and vanilla ice cream, are being smuggled to her.

The 90-year-old television cook is recuperating from the Nov. 4 surgery at the Rehabilitation Institute, which is near her Montecito home, but Child doesn't think much of the in-house meals.

"I've been bringing in all kinds of stuff," Child's assistant Stephanie Hersh said. "In-N-Out burgers, homemade dinners, soup. We brought her Thanksgiving dinner."

Child underwent surgery after a 20-year-old knee replacement got infected. Doctors had to remove the old replacement in late August, leaving Mrs. Child "knee-less" until the November surgery, Hersh said.

Child is expected to return home in time for Christmas.

"She's looking forward to getting out and going to the farmers market," Hersh said.

Child was in provincial Rouen, France, when she ate the meal she calls her transforming experience. It was a simple one by French standards: oysters on the half-shell, sole meuniere and a green salad, washed down with a bottle of Pouilly-Fuisse white.

But it led, eventually, to three Emmys for her cooking show, three decorations from the French government, six honorary degrees from American universities and a dozen cookbooks.

The 6-foot-3 culinary icon turned 90 in August.
