Julie and Julia - A must for food connoisseur

This movie is all about food, food and food, something that I am very much passionate about, making it quite different from the stereotypical ones. It is a story of how a woman takes up an assignment of trying out 524 recipes in 365 days from a very famous book and simultaneously blogs about her “every recipe” experience. She eventually succeeds in it thereby making her famous. I wont get into the detail. Not to expect much from the story but what takes the limelight are the variety of sumptuous recipes that make you say “Yummmm....” each time.
I know it would be hard to believe but it taught me how to make Garlic Bread!! (of course not in detail but the basic idea). Also this friend of mine is planning to try out one of the dishes made in the movie!!! (well both of us love to cook!!)
So if you have any kinda liking towards cooking this movie will definitely help you like it all the more.

My take: Thumbs Up!!

Back... (well let's hope) with a BANG!!!


I know I have been pretty infrequent here. It has been more than a year since I created this blog but have posted merely a handful of posts. There are many reasons for this like I started it with a boom but eventually the interest began to shatter down. Another reason being life had become quite monotonous for me. Maybe because I was just taking whatever life was throwing at me (unlike the saying..”When life throws lemon at you don't make lemon juice out of it, instead ask for tequila!!”.. I was more contented with the lemon juice!!!), making things very dull and boring. So much so that there was a time when I had decided to delete my blog and went on with it.
But a couple of days back while I was surfing through the net, I came across few MBA forums which highlighted certain aspects required in MBA aspirants. One such aspect was creativity!! Something which I kinda lack and have to work on.
Meanwhile, I also happened to visit few of my friends' blogs and I very much liked the ease with which they had put in stuffs in a lucid language. Pretty impressive!!
I definitely agree that blogging is not everybody's cup of tea as it requires out of the box thinking and the art of penning down thoughts lucidly. But there is no harm in giving it a shot or maybe two!! So that is how I decided to restart blogging!! Now since I have lots of free time and also life is not the way it was anymore with many unpredictable things happening around. That way, it should not be difficult for me to keep posing my experience. Hope I stick to this!! And more important, I hope I blog sense!!
Adios...
