Bears Quote by Julia Child

“I don't believe in twisting yourself into knots of excuses and explanations over the food you make… Usually one's cooking is better than one thinks it is. And if the food is truly vile...then the cook must simply grit her teeth and bear it with a smile.” quote by Julia Child — Download Open image
