I think about food a lot.
I like to talk to food about my problems.
Everyone else in the New Year is all about "let's eat healthy and read Proust and make plans to join a gym".
I am thinking about butter, cream and garlic and how I can get a terrine dish for not too much money. I suppose some of this has to do with the whole hibernation yen I often have at times. I can't hibernate but I can make plans to roast things and eat a few pears and a bar or two of chocolate to feel better about the dark months.
I watched Julie and Julia tonight. I don't think I have many new thoughts to add to what has been said about the movie. I agree that Meryl Streep and Stanley Tucci should make more movies together. They are terrific actors and when they are together they are amazing. The food scenes were beautiful. Julie Powell continues to irritate the tits off of me and the movie was a great deal of fun. To completely bare my soul I admit I kind of got teary during some of the Julia scenes. As I told my Mother, it was a bit like seeing an old friend. A wee bit corny in some ways but there you have it. I am easy like that. That happens every so often with certain movies.
I have bread to bake tomorrow. I will also cook up some lentils and sausages. There will be bacon and butter involved. It will help keep the wolves away.
