Julia's Life in France
• 16 July 2009
If you love food and you love France, you must read this book. I realize now that I need to get my hands on a copy of Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking. While I don’t intend on ever making my own terrine or anything else really complicated, I do see value in learning how to make a few basic French dishes.
I just placed an order for this book last night! It looks to be a good read...
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the 'Julie & Julia' film later this summer.
I took this book out of the library after a recommendation from a friend. I knew nothing about Julia Child and wasn't sure how I'd like it, and I totally LOVED it! I was so taken with how direct and sometimes irreverent Julia was - she really made me laugh. And her dedication to learning more and more about cooking was so impressive to me. A great read!
ReplyDeleteWe just read that for our book club; it's great!
ReplyDeleteMy husband bought the cooking books off ebay for me last year. He worked on the movie Julie and Julia and was inspired for me to get cooking! I love, love her style.
ReplyDeleteI'm half-way through this book and am absolutely loving it so far!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for the Julie and Julia movie--I'm unnaturally excited about it. :o)

ReplyDeleteI loved that book, and can't wait to see the movie Julie on Julia.
ReplyDeleteHave you seen the new movie coming out with Meryl Streep playing Julia Child, and Amy Adams playihg a woman named Julia who writes a blog about Julia Child's cookbook/recipes? It looks like a good one....You'd probably enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteYou should read On Rue Tatin(?). It's a very similar experience to yours.
