Julie & Julia- What's for Dinner?

Wow- have I really not written since July? Whoops!

So, I'm late to the JULIE & JULIA party but I caught this movie on cable tonight & watching all this food has made me hungry. I'm a long-time Julia fan. Her devotion to two of the three B's (Butter & Booze- Bacon being the third "b" in my culinary trifecta) has always endeared her to my belly, if not to my blood pressure or my cholesterol. Anyone who cooks with that much butter is clearly living well & happy, right?

Now, part of the problem is that I'm one of the 12 people in the world who doesn't adore Meryl Streep. So I don't rush out to her movies. But damn if she didn't just nail Julia in all of her spirit & joy.

I think in honor of how much fun this movie was to watch, I might have to make Julia's quiche tomorrow. Frankly, the only reason I'm not making it right now is because it's 11:30 at night. Yes, quiche tomorrow... thanks Julia, for all the great food.
