    The Saturday Post: Happy birthday edition

    DateSaturday, August 18, 2012

    Julia Child's birthday was this past Wednesday. She would have been 100 years old. In honor of her birthday, PBS cooked up this:

    Today is the birthday of my very own Julia Child, the Julia Child of our family: Brianna. She turns 30 years old today! I'm nowhere's near as talented as PBS in cooking up birthday fun, but I'm hoping Brianna's birthday celebration will end up being just as tasty and fun as the mashup above. At least to Brianna.

    Happy birthday to Brianna!

    And to Julia Child.

    And happy Saturday to the rest of ya!

    Enjoy!

    That was a fantastic video. Thanks so much for sharing it. Happy Birthday to your daughter.

    Great video. But now when I look at Julia Child, I see kind of a mash-up of her and Meryl Streep! Happy birthday to Brianna!

    Karen: Thank you! Not only for the birthday wishes for my girl but for sharing "kvelling"! Love it and hadn't heard it (even had to look it up) but now will be kvelling all over the place. Love it! Happy birthday to your son AND to you! Have a lovely birthday together.

    Olga: Thank you so much!Thirty is a biggie.

    Susan: Thank you, too. And I so get what you're saying about the Meryl/Julia mashup. It's like she's just a character now, not her true self when you see her. Though she always seemed a bit of a caricature to me for some reason anyway.

    Wonderful video!

    And best birthday wishes to your Brianna, I hope there's a wonderful celebration planned. I suspect so:)

    Great video, thanks Lisa.

    Happy Birthday Brianna! I loved the video. I had watched one yesterday of he first appearance on David Letterman and it was fabulous, too! Not only could she cook -- she has a wonderful personality. Check it out if you get a chance! She gets him to eat steak tartare!
