<strong>Bon Appetit:</strong> Chef Julia Child shows off a <em>salade nicoise</em> she prepared in the kitchen of her vacation home in southern France, in August 1978. Child remembered the first French dinner she had, back in 1948: sole with mushroom and white wine sauce, and oysters on the half shell. &quot;I just couldn't get over it,&quot; she told Terry Gross. &quot;I hadn't ever had that kind of food.&quot; (AP)
