American chef, Sara Moulton, dedicated an episode of her Public Television show, Sara’s Weeknight Meals, to her former mentor Julia Child. Sara said she learned many things from Julia that she still carries with her today. The things she mentioned are excellent advice for living a happy and successful life. First, “always strive for excellence.” Even if you are mowing the lawn, do the best job you possibly can—always let excellence define you. Second,” never stop learning.” This guarantees that life will never become boring for you and that you will never be a bore to other people. Finally, “have fun.” Life is meant to be enjoyed to the fullest, so let it happen. Julia Child always had a smile on her face which is why so many people stood in line just to shake her hand.
