Read This Book THEN See the Movie

The movie Julie and Julia staring Meryl Streep and Amy Adams was recently released into theaters. Based on the life of Julia Child (for those of you who do not know, she brought real French cooking to the United States), this book's inspiration far surpasses great cooking recipes. Did you know that she was just a California girl trying to find her way in the world? Or that she took cooking lessons because she needed something to do while living in Paris? My Life in France is a truly inspiring book that will make you want to race into the kitchen and start really living life. To get the best DEAL out of her story, please read the book before watching the movie. To read words directly from her mouth brings a smile to your face and a hunger pain to your stomach.
