Voila!

And I'm done with My Life in France. I loved this book. With a few exceptions of when she would talk about french named dishes for multiple paragraphs, i found the book very entertaining. I loved how upbeat and positive she was about life, and food. I was shocked to hear about all the alcohol and smoking going on in her life. But living in France I guess that is the norm. I remember a story my mom told me about asking for water (instead of wine, scandal!) at a restaurant in France. The waiter turned up his nose and said, "Water, is for the ducks!" haha! Julia has given me a renewed zest to take a little more care in the kitchen and try new recipes every once in a while. Merci, ma cherie!
