Julie and Julia: The Movie

Finally got to see Julie and Julia tonight. It was amazing. I imagine folks who saw it without having read the book first were less impressed than I, but I loved it.

I’m reminded of the things that I am passionate about (food and books) and what I want to do with them. One day I will own my own bookstore/cafe.

There are several recipes I want to try now, including:

I’m also filled with the urge to bone a duck. I don’t think that will be on my menu any time soon though.

But I do have a project in mind for 2010. One that combines the things that I love. This could be the start of something beautiful.

Heaven?

Why have I not thought to try this before?

Bacon… Ice Cream?

Yes, you read that title correctly. I just stumbled onto a recipe for, that’s right, bacon ice cream.

And just as you are inevitably doing right now, my first thought was ick.

Then I read the recipe. And I think I might like to try it.

Too bad I don’t have an ice cream maker anymore.
