French Food Quote: Daily Food Quote, August 5, 2011

Published by Friday, August 5, 2011 Permalink 0

by Anne Bragance

A woman’s movements when in her kitchen need no interpretation; they are like the musician’s movements when he is playing his instrument, like those of a painter as he sits in front of his canvas. No words are required to understand.

Les gestes d’une femme dans sa cuisine sont immédiatement intelligibles, comparables un peu à ceux du musicien qui joue d’un instrument, à ceux du peintre devant sa toile. Nul besoin de paroles alors.

Anne Bragance, Un goût du soleil
