The snippet below comes from fangirl Jenny who does the online-cooking thing over at Jennylearnstocook.com. In the video, Jenny puts a spin on our Chicken With Mushrooms recipe, and we're posting it because we get a HUGE SMILE when fans and friends have success with our recipes in their own kitchens. Also, we love to see the different ways people find to take our basic molds and make them their own. LOVE LOVE it!

It's Sunday and while I did cook today (episode...46 I believe. You'll see it in a few months) I actually spent most of my day reading. You see, I bought myself a gift this week:

...and, well, yes, I've fallen into the Julia Cliche. Not only have I seen the movie about 7 times (not exaggerating - I love me some Meryl) I've now resigned myself to reading this whole book...or as much as I can get through without losing complete interest like I did with "My Life In France". I hope I can read and retain at least some of the information in this book. It is chock full of good stuff, which is what I like about Julia in general.

You see, I've been on a Julia kick recently. It all started when I was advised to study the greats of my "profession," aka: people who cooked on TV and who had success with it. So I went out and bought myself some Julia Child on DVD (and the book, too) and I started to take notes. What I learned is that Julia was a wealth of information - she covers not only the HOW of culinary technique, but also the WHY, which is why I think she was so special. I appreciate that she tells you how  to beat egg whites and also WHY her method works. Something with air bubbles...

Anyway - I'm a Julia fan - and I get it now. I see why people loved her. Lady was funny. If you're interested in learned to cook, I suggest you go the cheap route and invest in some Julia DVDs. They're pretty great.

I'm going to try to start blogging more about food and my life in general. Bear with me, I am an inconsistent blogger at best. But people have been positive about my blogs and I think it'll add to the site, so here I go...
