Check out the Julie and Julia trailer! I was truly inspired to start this blog by that
 movie! It's to bad that Julia Child died in 2002 or else I would be devoted to meeting her. Maybe I will have to meet Julie.

Butter

I made my first food without a recipe! My Mom taught me how to make macaroni and cheese and it was delicious! I think the butter made it. I quote from the Julie and Julia Movie: "You can never have to much butter!"

Dinner

Last night I made Dinner! First I made popovers (recipe from Real Simple) which are similar to yorkshire pudding, then I made spahgetti (my dad cooked the meat and sauce) which was served with the popovers. Then for dessert, I made fruit salad, and chocolate dipped strawberries. I had this idea-of course after I made the strawberries-that after I melted the choclolate and dipped them, I drizzled melted white chocolate over them. I guess ther's always next time!

The Volcano

We just made "the volcano" a delicous fizzy drink my friend and I invented ourselves! You make it with:

• 1 can of gingerale
• 1 can of bacardi strawberry mix (no alcohol)
• 1 tbsp of lemon juice
• 3 cups of water

1.        Combine the ingredients and mix until evreything is dissovled.

Bon Appetite!

I can't wait to start cooking for my family! For now I will have to survive on better homes recipes but soon, very soon I should have my cookbook!

Welcome

Cooking didn’t really come natural to me. One time, I was cooking a frozen pizza in the microwave, and set the cooking timer on my microwave. It turned out that instead of setting the timer, I had pressed cook, thus blowing the fuse on the microwave because it had been running for 20 minutes. I think I became inspired when I watched a movie called: “Julie and Julia”, about a famous French chef named Julia Child. I have yet to buy her cookbook “The art of French cooking” but am planning to in the very near future. If you are interested in buying it visit: www.chapters.ca and search “The art of French cooking” There are generally 3 volumes  and although I haven’t read them yet I’m sure that they are all fantastic!
