I caught myself watching that movie, Julie & Julia, and I much enjoyed it!
I was raised in a big family and food wasn't just our business - we owned a bakery - it was a hobby! My mom could invent and create anything. She never stepped into the kitchen as someone who knew what she was going to cook. She would open the refrigerator and look what was inside, then from it she'd creat a wonderful meal!
Our weekends were always like that! We'd cook something together and have lots of fun! I was usually responsable for the dessert, along with my sister.
As I grew up, I learned how to cook a lot of other things, and it's funny how food has always been involved with my most treasured moments... If I wasn't cooking it with my family or friends, then I was most certainly enjoying it at a restaurant, a friend's place or in my kitchen with my mom.
Cooking is something everyone can do... We just have to give it a try and a little practice. I didn't get it right the first time I made cookies, but I sure made up for it on my second try!
And isn't this how life is? We give it a try and sometimes it work and sometimes it doesn't, but even when it doesn't work, we're never limited or short on tries, and can keep inventing and creating and trying again and again. New things, old things, things you didn't even know you could do!
Let's enjoy life like our favorite meal! Yummy!
