So I know, what kind of Chef am I that I just now saw the movie Julie & Julia? I have been meaning to, really! Just been busy as you can all see….

So I saw the movie and I liked it. I liked the fact it highlighted French cookery and they mentioned the Le Cordon Bleu, which is also the program that I completed as well. That was a major plus. The film depicts events in the life of chef Julia Child in the early years in her culinary career, contrasting her life with Julie Powell, who aspires to cook all 524 recipes from Child’s cookbook during a single year. This is a good idea, why I did not think of that I will never know LOL. The thing I did not like about the movie was the actress who played Julie, Amy Adams. She is just too mousy for my tastes.

The movie was entertaining, so I will probably buy it at some point. Meryl Streep was just fantastic, she had that role down to a science proving once again that she is a great actress!

Hard to believe that a woman, Julie Powell got so famous as a blogger/writer from that stunt is just amazing. Some of us who run these blogs work very hard to produce content and promote our blogs. Julie Powell’s blog was nothing more than words against a white background, so very plain. But! This was when blogging was still in the early stages.

So Its a good movie, so if you like to cook, watch it!
