365 days, 524 dishes, a tiny apartment kitchen.
this is a true story. Julie Powell, a company employee who lives in Manhattan, once saw "Mastering The Art Of French Cooking" on her mother's cupboard and took it home to study it slowly. The author of this book, which is called the "kitchen bible" by Americans, is Julia Child. So Julie and Julia, two women who have never met, have a delicate relationship.

At the encouragement of her husband, Julie started a blog and decided to make all 524 dishes in the book "Mastering the Art of Cooking French Cuisine" in 365 days! So, in this dilapidated LOFT apartment in Manhattan, Julie made the first egg in her life, learned to turn the pan, whip the cream, tie the chicken... these things even she could not believe, It was done unknowingly.

Her blog gradually gained regular readers, and in the end, if she stopped for a few days and didn't do it, fans would yell at her to show up quickly! This little clerk who sits and works in the company has found self-confidence, value and happiness here.

She envied Julia Child's large kitchen, which was bright and transparent, she envied Julia Child's pearl necklace, and wished she could be elegant when cooking, she envied Julia Child De's husband, considerate and gentle, endless support.

In fact, Julie is as happy as Julia. Her understanding and temperless husband was always by her side when she was mad because of bad dishes and when she was discouraged.



The original Julie and Julia is my bedside book these days. It's not a sensible thing to read a book like this to sleep! One day, when I saw my cravings, I got up to find some snacks to eat before I stopped. When watching a movie, you must put food away, otherwise you will be tempted! When I watched this movie a few months ago, after watching it, I pulled the rhino and ran to eat a big Western meal before I was satisfied!
