“We ate it sitting on the couch, bowls perched on knees, the silence broken only by the occasional snort of laughter as we watched a pert blonde high school student dust vampires on the television. In almost no time we were slurping the dregs of our third servings. (it turns out that one reason we're so good together is that each of us eats more and faster than anyone either of us has ever met; also, we both recognize the genius of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.)” RelationshipsFoodBuffy The Vampire SlayerJulia Child Book:Julie and Julia: 365 Days, 524 Recipes, 1 Tiny Apartment Kitchen Source: Julie and Julia: 365 Days, 524 Recipes, 1 Tiny Apartment Kitchen
“The Rognons de Veau à la Bordelaise did not taste like piss, no matter what my mother says, because I cleaned them with my deadly boning knife, and because the beef marrow conducted a two-pronged attack with the finishing sprinkling of parsley on any holdout pissiness- extinguishing it between fatty, velvety richness and sharp, fresh greenness. We ate it with a wine that I bought in the city that is cloudy and dark and tastes a little like blood. The lady who sold it to me called it "feral." Like me. For dessert, some creamy smooth Reine de Saba and Season 1, Episode 2, Buffy.” KidneysFood And WineBuffy The Vampire SlayerChocolate CakeFrench FoodTastesJulie Powell Book:Julie & Julia: My Year of Cooking Dangerously Source: Julie & Julia: My Year of Cooking Dangerously
