But yes, Julia was well known in France but of course not in the rest of the world. Nobody heard of Josephine Baker until well after WW2. |

It is if a woman is using her maiden name. Julia always used her married name and wasn't afraid to be called Mrs. as she was a celebrity in her own right. She wasn't afraid of being overshadowed by a man. Personally, I hate that stupid Ms. title. "Miz Joan, miz Joan! Yo' want yo' yawd mowed?" |

Yes, I guess it's strange to use Ms with your husband's name. You'd have to use Mrs Husbandsname or Ms Ownname. Or use your first name. |

Mostly, they're wonderful television personalities. Ms. Child is important because she introduced a generation of American boomers to French style cooking. She did have her predecessors. I suppose Fanny Cradock would be the most well known in the UK. I can't say if Ms. Child is known in the UK or the rest of the world. > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWoXQSfQkDg Comedians used to take the piss out of Fanny, calling her Fanny Haddock. From Wiki, "Cradock married four times, twice bigamously." |

I doubt that's true. It's also not true that nobody heard of Josephine Baker before WWII. She was a huge star in France during the 20's and 30's. Are you just making up stuff as you go along? This is just nuts. |

Ms. Cradock would be a scary lady to work with or be married once to, let alone 4 times. What I don't get is the need to poke fun at her name. Isn't "fanny" the Brit word for "pussy?" Pussy Cradock is a lot more funny than Fanny Haddock. Something's fishy if you ask me. |

I made a sponge cake once by following her instructions. What a disaster! I think her ego greatly exceeded her competence! |

This is just nuts. Indeed you are making stuff up. I never said that Josephine Baker was famous world-wide. My guess is that in America she was just another colored girl. In France, she was a superstar and a war hero. You should make a little effort to get your facts straight. Yoose gets the last word. |

Wait, I learnt here that 'colored person' is no longer acceptable and should now be 'person of color'. It might even have been you who told me that. Am I mistaken? |

OTOH, I really think you should try a stab at making her famous (?) round Christmas pudding. I think I might try it, although I'll probably have to substitute 6 lbs of hamburger for whatever the hell is in Christmas pudding. https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/images/ic/1200x675/p05q2bw5.jpg |

You're not supposed to tell other posters what to say or what to post or how to post. You're totally free to call colored people whatever the heck you want to. You can call them "Zwarte Piet" if you like. What's it to me? |

What about them? It's none of my business if the Turks think of themselves as Japanese. I'm fine with that. I'm thinking that the Okinawans are actually hapa-haole i.e., part white. I can't say if that's true or not. |
