Would You like Butter with That?

This weekend, I hit the Cheesecake Factory and then a movie theater with some fabulous friends (Andrea happy birthday!, Karyn, and Melinda) for a good ol' chick flick.

It was hilarious. Both heroines were endearing, and I admit to being one of those obnoxious movie-goers who laughs out loud.

Julie & Julia is based on two true stories and was a pleasant surprise. Julia Child brought French cooking home, so to speak, and Julie Powell's blog is famous. Someday mine may be too. LOL

Here I sit, a servantless American cook with an unexpected craving to try my hand at Boeuf Bourguignon. But, no desire to work my way through an entire cookbook of 500+ Julia Child recipes in a year.

P.S. - Let's try that again. I misspelled a word last time. What I said was, I am mentioned on your blog, so when you become famous, I do too, right?

It was such a great night. And I'm serious about the Beouf and cooking together. Alas, I have no idea how to go about procuring good red wine. :P

Let's Get It Started

Today I found a new online party planning resource . Holiday, birthday, bridal shower, baby shower, weddings, etc. It helps you create invitations or ecards, is customizable, offers list management and guest list management, sends event/birthday reminders, manages potluck sign up lists, links to Twitter and Facebook, helps you decide on a date, links to your e-calendar, links to party planning supplies, manages a to-do list, offers party planning ideas, hints and tips, and is pretty much amazing. In addition, it is free. I'm hooked.

Shot and Chaser

I did it! Today I braved a shot of wheat grass and am forever grateful to the Jamba Juice employee (Alexa) who recommended the orange juice shot as a chaser over an orange wedge. I'm not sure why today was such a momentous day. Wheat grass is something I've wanted to try for a while, but haven't dared do - kind of like my purchasing soy milk and hesitance to drink. (Thanks, Renee , for the recent soy smoothie introduction!) All I can say now is wow, wheat grass - talk about fresh!
