Can you gain ten pounds from watching a movie? I mean, just sitting on your couch, wrapped in your new Snuggie. No popcorn, no snacks...just watching a movie. I think I gained ten pounds from watching Julie & Julia this weekend.As someone who a)doesn't like to cook and b) is scared to cook, I found this movie inspirational enough to try some new recipes as my new years resolution. Yup, I have been inspired by the queen of French cuisine and plan on tackling some new dishes in the next 12 months. I won't be making anything I can't pronounce but I am going to try. I will (hopefully) have some happy stories to share about the process.
Did you like J&J? I liked the Julia more than the Julie. She seemed whiny (although Amy Adams is adorable in anything).
Check out this weeks post of "Living In" over at Design* Sponge. Amy Merrick shows you exactly what you need to have a kitchen like Julia's. If anything I hope the film inspires us all to eat more butter!

I watched that movie on NYE while wrapped in my Snuggie too! I enjoy cooking but rarely do it. And yes, the Julie character bugged me...mostly because she had really bad hair. There should be a movie just about Julia, as played by Meryl Streep. That would be excellent.
LOVED this movie! And for some reason the cooking bug has bitten me--over the last few months I've become obsessed!
