Cassandra Clare
“If you knew how to cook, maybe I would eat," Jace muttered.

Isabelle froze, her spoon poised dangerously. "What did you say?"

Jace edged toward the fridge. "I said I'm going to look for a snack to eat."

That's what I thought you said." Isabelle turned her attention to the soup.”
Cassandra Clare, City of Bones

Julia Child
“...no one is born a great cook, one learns by doing.”
Julia Child, My Life in France
