Hi, Everyone! I hope that you are all having a great weekend and enjoying the last few days of the summer! I can't wait for the fall to be here, I'm ready for the heat and the humidity to be over already! I wanted to share some pictures of a recent trip to Washington DC. As soon as I found out that Julia Child's kitchen reopened at the Smithsonian Museum of American History in honor of what would have been her 100th birthday, I wanted to go and see it! I just read her book My Life in France a couple of weeks ago, and just love her whole story, and so I was so excited to get to see her kitchen! Here are some pictures from the exhibit, sorry they are not the greatest quality since they were taken with my phone. If you are a fan of Julia Child, it's definitely a fun place to visit! You can find more information about it here!

 The kitchen shows the hundreds of utensils that Julia owned, as well as lots of her appliances, dishes and pots and pans.
All of Julia's copper cooking pots and pans!

 Unfortunately this was as close as you could get to the kitchen, it would have been so neat to be able to walk through it, but it was really interesting seeing it like this too! 
So if you're ever in the area, are a fan of Julia's and haven't seen the kitchen, it's a fun thing to do! They are also opening a new exhibition called Food: Transforming America's Table, 1950 - 2000 at the Smithsonian American History Museum at the end of November! I hope you liked the little tour of Julia's kitchen, and hope you get to check it out for yourself sometime! Have a great rest of your week, Everyone, and Bon Apetit!
