Did you watch the movie Julie & Julia? It was cute. I liked it a lot.
I'm on a similar mission, with a few alternations.
Armed with my mother's copy of From Julia's Kitchen, I'm going to spend this summer letting Julia teach me how to cook. Except, I'm going to skip over half the recipes because I don't meat. I'm hoping that tweak will make my cooking adventure more complete-able.
I have my misgivings about this whole blogging thing, though. It has always seemed silly to me. Yet, here I am, at my lap-top, dying to write about this Potage Parmentier (Potato and Leek Soup) I made yesterday. It literally made my toes tingle. I though people said that as a figure of speech, but really, my mouth was in ecstasy. I don't think it had ever realized that food was supposed to taste that good.
I had another bowl of it a couple minutes ago. I'm still floored.
