A few years ago, after the movie
about Julia Child came out, my mom and I decided to cook our way through the
Julia Child’s cookbook and blog about our experience much like the main character
of the movie did. It started off great, every night we had a new dinner. It was
fun, great bonding time, and really freaking delicious. My mom did most of the
cooking and I was responsible for the blog posts, but as Mrs. Frazer probably
knows, keeping my blog updated is a real struggle for me. Both my mom and I have
very short attention spans when it comes to long term projects like this, our
mission to cook our way through the cookbook slowly began to fade away. We never got anywhere close to the end, and
honestly, I am kind of glad; I recall seeing a recipe that called for cow
brains, and I am very happy that I won’t have to eat that. I will say that
everything my mom did make from that cookbook has been delightful. She still
cooks our favorites, and every time she does I think of what a crazy idea it
was to try and cook through that huge cookbook, especially with the two of us,
we can’t seem to commit to anything.
