Julie & Julia Inspiration for Ken & Jim and Mary

O.K. I haven't seen the movie. But the concept intrigued me. My Mom and Dad put together a cook book of all their favorite recipes. You know, clippings, recipe books, friends' and relatives' suggestions. I remember Mom typing it up on the old Olympia type writer.


There are 240 recipes; beef, fish, pork, fish, soups, sauces and deserts. So...I'm not setting a time frame. But I am going to do every recipe in that book. Maybe it's a way to spend the next year. Maybe it's a nice way to try out new recipes. I'll find out.
