Bon Appetit!
I went with my best friend to see Julie and Julia the night it came out here (August 7th) and have finally gotten around to posting about it! I LOVED EVERY PART OF IT!!!! It was so cool to watch Julia Child on The PBS Network when she had the show "The French Chef". She used to place whole tuna fish and other assorted large portions of meat and would teach you how to prepare the complete dish from start to finish, including how to cut the section of meat that you needed.
As I mentioned in a previous post below, I love Meryl Streep and Stanley Tucci together...and they played the parts of Julia and her husband Paul so well. I won't spoil anything for you if you have not yet seen the movie...but it kept me in stitches most of the time and even made me cry in a few parts.
To tackle someone's entire cookbook of 524 recipes in 365 days is a feat that I have to admit I would never inflict upon myself....but you gotta respect Julie Powell for taking on this task and learning about who she was in the process and midst of it all. And she was and is a blogger/writer, which made it even better. You can still find some of her old blog posts on the Internet by typing in The Julie/Julia Project.
I LOVE to cook....LOVE to entertain...and LOVE to bring friends and family together, and even though I do not have a copy of "Mastering the Art of French Cooking", I do have "Baking with Julia" that needs dusted off and I do believe that a few recipes are calling my name....when I whip them up, I'll let you know how they turned out. Until then....
BON APPETIT! (in my best Julia Child accent!)

** I have to see this movie! I love Julia Childs and used to watch her show on PBS. I love Amy Adams and Merryl Streep and they are both in this movie that is based on true life stories...one of Julia Child's life and one of Julie Powell's life in both of their searches to "find themselves". I have pondered the thought of whether or not I am living up to the full potential that God created me for...as I often wish that I could quit working for "Corporate America" and start my own business where I can be creative and make art and people get in touch with their "inner child" again. I have a vision of what it should look like....who I want to come along with me for the ride....and what it would look like filled with people. The only obstacle is that thing called Money (to start my dream job)...and that thing called Health Insurance (my need to have a stable job that supplies the medical insurance that my husband cannot obtain due to his existing health issues)...maybe someday, I too can chase after my dreams....but at this point I am willing to sacrifice them to insure that my family has what they need. I can't wait until this movie comes out on August 7th! I am "feeding" that part of my inner soul that longs to be a free spirit(maybe I am part Bohemian and don't know it!)...with the hopes that dreams can and do come true, no matter how old we get. I know this to be true because my God tells me that it is...but sometimes taking that "leap of faith" means waiting patiently(which I don't do very well)....so one window can close, so that a door can open...
