  1. God she looks like she had incredible strength. Like my grandmother. She was 5ft6 and could have an oak tree down with an axe in about half an hour

  2. I call it food surgery. As a line cook I have preformed many surgeries and have lost very few dishes 😊

  3. The video of her on Letterman is an all time great cooking video. The hot plate is broken, so she changes her hamburger to beef tartare. 😂 Letterman was such a good sport and ate it! 😂

  4. This reminds me of my husband and I hosting a couple for dinner, and I made a baked Brie for the first time inside of a puff pastry. I cut into WAY too soon, and the brie came oozing out like lava 😂 I was like oh well, still tastes good. Just looks terrible.

  5. Perspective.
    Today you push the idea of embarrassment from failure.
    When this was filmed, she did this on purpose to teach . She could have easily edited out the issue and presented a perfect result instead but this is about education. Failures aren't embarrassing. They are the stepping stones to success and opportunities to not only learn how to do something the textbook way, but how to troubleshoot and fix issues as you go.
    Perspective.
    Being frightened of failure means people won't try as hard. They become quitters because that's easy and comfortable.
    Don't ever assume these old educational videos are made with the same mentality that we as a society have today. That is not the case. Yes embarrassment of failure existed then but the way it was usually handled was totally different. The goal was not comfort or discomfort, it was to gain a skill through trial, error and perseverance.

  6. She was a real trail blazer for the trans community. So hard to pass as female back then without hormone therapy but she went ahead and lived as a woman anyways. So strong.

  7. I so believe she was a trans who didn’t say as the world was so unforgiving but just her demeanor and the way she turned things around made me felt like she was inspired within her own transition.. it’s just the voice always features and no shame as she continues to inspire

  8. I miss her! She was the 1970s version of Martha Stewart, except way more down to earth, in my opinion.

  9. Government agent.
    Those who came after her were shit and trash – US special agencies are a joke, all their accomplishments revolve around low-level, subtarded methods like poison, killing or otherwise abusing the intended purpose of things.

  10. So calm and collected. Just like bob ross was. Both took us on journeys. One was an adventure one was cooking learning

  11. I also agree the best way for people to learn is to watch when the people who have already learned still mess up and not only how they handle it but the demeanor in handling it as well
