Europe's oldest-known living person, and possibly the second-oldest person in the world, has survived COVID-19 — and she just celebrated her 117th birthday in a very European manner... downing plenty of Champagne, red wine, and port. Just add it to your list of counterintuitive longevity tips — alongside bacon, whiskey, eggs, and brandy.
Sister André was born Lucile Randon in 1904. The French nun currently resides at the Ste. Catherine Laboure nursing home in Toulon, and as
The New York Times reports, things became a bit worrisome last month when the coronavirus began infecting its residents: 81 of the 88 people living in the home contracted the illness, including Sister André, and 11 died. However, the now 117-year-old apparently only had mild symptoms and pulled through, making her birthday that much more celebratory.

A New TV Series About Julia Child's Life Is Coming to HBO Max

With the debut of
The French Chef in 1963, television made Julia Child a star. Now, almost sixty years later, the late celebrity chef is returning to TV yet again—not as a host, of course, but as the lead character in a dramatic series based around her life.
Julia—as the show will be called—is billed as being "inspired by Julia Child's extraordinary life and her long-running television series,
The French Chef, which pioneered the now popular genre of cooking shows." The series—which will star two-time British Academy Television Awards winner Sarah Lancashire as the famed chef—will also explore "an evolving time in American history—the emergence of public television as a new social institution, feminism and the women's movement, the nature of celebrity and America's cultural growth. At its heart, the series is a portrait of a loving marriage with an evolving and complicated power dynamic."

As President-elect Joe Biden is set to be sworn in tomorrow, and with the recent storming of the Capitol adding a deadly development to an already contentious election, the National Guard has been on high alert. Over 20,000 National Guard members have reportedly been stationed in Washington, D.C.—resulting in the now-famous viral photo of troops sleeping the marble Capitol floor. But though finding beds for everyone isn't easy, Chef José Andrés and his charity organization World Central Kitchen have been working to assure that these soldiers at least have access to decent meals.
