    My brother and I went into SF to see the two of them signing books at Sur La Table a few years ago. They were just as adorable in person. Jacques kept ushering awed middle-aged women behind Julia for photo ops, and was altogether charming (as should be the man who brought us the HoJo's fried clam strips). It is one of my favorite memories ...

    I have the cookbook from this show, and it's briliant! They give alternate ways of doing things - and sometimes I do Julia's way and sometimes Jacques way - but both are spectacular. I think it really highlights the different ways you can go about cooking - and no matter what, the results are marvelous.
    My favorite recipe in there is the paté one. I now make it every christmas. I use Jacques recipe for it - but it was Julia's words that inspired me. "It's really just a fancy meatloaf."
    After reading that? I knew I could do it :) And every year I get mad compliments on it.

    Oh my God I was SO just WAITING for this to happen. I speak more French than any of the girls he'd previously hit on and this girl is my new hero and did exactly what I'd wanted to do to him with his pretentious assholery.

    "But it turns out that he knows only a few phrases."

    I didn't interpret what happened as proof that he only knew a few phrases, it seems from previous scenes from the show that he does know French. I just think that he was bummed that he couldn't impress her at all because she is more cultured than he is.

    Watching this girl be so utterly unimpressed with him was great. At least she was less of a bitch than Camille was.

    @unalteredone: That's what I gathered too. But I haven't downloaded the episode yet.

    But I think the fact that she knows French, for Sebastian, is kind of like hanging out with a girl who doesn't think that hair is the most important quality in a man. If he can't flip his hair or utter French witticisms, what does he have left to offer a girl? He's not even a real surfer.

    Brenda Dubois aka: Brenda Walsh could have told him this would happen. That is why they really need to teach the classics in schools.

    @hatepaperdoll: A bunch of private NYC schools actually do require all students to take Latin and French. How much they learn and retain, however, depends a lot on the student. This guy doesn't seem to be too much of a scholar from what I can tell.

    @LaFemme: He doesn't seem like much of a scholar, but I was actually referring to an old episode of 90210. Don't worry, the fact that you didn't know that bodes well for you.

    @hatepaperdoll: I LOL'd. But so true! I watched the old Degrassi in high school (like really -- in class) and it taught me so many life lessons. 90210 should be mandatory material.
