Inspired by Julia Child

I finished reading "My Life In France," by Julia Child and Alex Prud'homme. It was lovely and romantic in so many ways! The book is mainly about Julia as a newlywed, and the time in her life when she and her husband moved to Paris. He introduced her to French food and wine, and she fell in love with it. While he was working, she began to experiment with learning to cook, shopping at the French market, and eventually taking courses at the Cordon Bleu. Her descriptions of food, the people that she meets, and her joy in life is contageous; and it is so fun to read about someone discovering her passions and pursuing them with such curiosity and determination. I have a love and admiration now for Julia Child, and for her cooking that feels very personal after reading this book.
