Julie and Julia














As usual, I'm very behind in movie watching, but absolutely loved (loved loved loved!) Julie & Julia, which I watched yesterday.  Loved!  Meryl Streep and Stanley Tucci (Julia and Paul Childs) were absolute perfection.  Talk about romance!  And despite the fact that I really dislike many of the meats used in French cooking, I'm  feeling so inspired to give it a go.  I do absolutely love many French dishes, so I think you can get by without eating duck or foie gras or escargot ...

If you haven't watched this charming movie yet, by all means do so!  I even cried very happy (some bittersweet) tears at the end - always the sign of a great movie.  :)

that's funny - i watched it yesterday too. and i completely loved it. and i cried a little too.

i, however, am still longing for that duck en croute she makes at the end. it looked AMAZING.

I loved the movie! I think the whole thing should've just been about Julia and Paul. Stanly Tucci and Meryl Streep are so great together.

It was a wonderful movie. I'm a little put off by some of the dishes too, but others seemed quite delicious!

You can make your own duck en croute, Shana! * good luck :P *

I agree, June - they were incredible together, weren't they?

I agree all around, Vicki!
