Julie and Julia

is utterly adorable. watched the whole thing with a big smile on my face. then went home and ate pizza from Tony's, not beef bourguignon.

Things i have in common with Julie Powell:

1. we both throw tantrums (especially when we botch dinner)
2. we both have trouble finishing things
3. we are both writers
4. we both don't consider ourselves writers until we get a book deal or have a large audience reading what we're writing
5. we both blog
6. we both have really sweet, hunky husbands
7. our sweet, hunky husbands make us live in the outer boroughs
8. we both have jobs that pay poorly and involve people yelling at us on the phone
9. she got a book deal. one day i'll get a book deal.
