Well it's amazing what you hear when you talk to interesting people. Frances my dear friend, saved my bacon in more ways than one last week. With the eminant deadline looming for the dreaded video project.. I had taken to the beach with my 'starlett... ange' in tow last week for another epic videoing experience... armed with a little black dress and a pair of binoculars... well to cut a long story short, it was 'dreadful'. I kind of knew that really, but had to magic up something after the trad fest weekend, so magic up I did, and this time, it backfired..badly. Anyhow I got to talking to Frances in the car on the way up and she was telling me about men who like to wear womans shoes etc.. and then we got onto this movie, Julie and Julia. It had nothing to do with men or shoes..and it would not normally have appealed to me because it is about cooking.. I hate cooking.. eating I love.. but cooking... uuuugghhh..anyhow this movie is based on two true stories about a girl in (2002) who cooks up this famous American woman, who is living in France's, recipes in (1940's?) (Ha ha not cooking the woman!!!) The power of the wrong apostrophe... Too much Louise Bourgeois again... anyhow..she cooks one recipe a night for 365 days and blogs about it. Well, I thought I could get a few blogging ideas.. so I watched it. It was ok, Ms Meryl Streep starring..with a very annoying high pitched voice, but interesting too, because they both got a movie made from their simple little story. The younger one was cooking some woman's recipes and wrote a blog about cooking them... do you see a pattern emerging here? A singer writing a cooking blog... maybe instead of community blogs I should start a blog about an artist???? who doesn't like to cook, blog... any publishers out there? Oh yes I forgot we don't need them anymore either... this is free for the world to read and no cost involved.
