Julie/Julia

I just watched the Julie/Julia movie starred by the legendary actress, Meryl Streep as Julia child and Amy Adams as Julie powell. It is about two different woman living a different life in totally different city, different time and have only one thing in common: their passion for food. And I have to add, a superiorly ( is that even a word? ;p ) affectionate husband.

Geez, if u like to cook and have watched this movie, u’ll understand why I’d die to married those kind of guy in the future.

the story goes back and forth from Julia child life in around 19-something to Julie Powell life in 2002. Julia child struggled to get her cook books published and Julie Powell tried to find some meaning in her life by cooking her way through Julia’s cookbook and blog about it.

It’s very entertaining and inspiring. Gue rasanya ikut tersiram semangat Julia memasak dan Julie menulis. Every journey starts with a single step. It might not be a very perfect step, we might stumble or fall, but at least we took that damn step, because the first step is always the hardest step.

setuju?

Di film ini banyak sekali food quotes yang keren, and I’ll post it someday, promise! Tapi akan lebih mantap kalo kalian nonton sendiri laaaah :)

Ps : Julie Powel sendiri menulis buku tentang proyek cooking her way up through julia’s cookbook ini berjudul Julie & Julia : my years of cooking dangerously and for those of you who have never ever ever heard of Julia Child ( just like I do before I watched this movie) monggo dicheck ke Wikipedia di http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julia_Child

enjoy!

Little Note

have you ever feel like you're tenggelam into something, and you simply, cannot get out?

i'm really sorry untuk waktu yg luamaa enggak update blog ini. bosen yah liat foto sushi melulu ? beberapa hari ini gue tengggelam dalam tumpukan buku dan kertas. dan bukan kertas buku biasa kawan kawan, tetapi buku *jengjengjeng* BIOMAFIAAA!! alias biologi, matematika fisika dan kimia. bentar lagi mau terima raport and school has been like #$#%#%^$!!!!!! (trying to hold myself not to swear)

liat aja noh, meja belajar gue. malu deh jd anak cewek meja belajarnya kaya kapal pecah begitu.

guru guru sibuk ngingetin kita dengan unfinished tugas dan her/remedial, dll. dan gue punya setumpuk tugas enggak terurus gara gara sempet gak masuk seminggu. unlucky me.
kena bener gue perkataan 'jangan tunda tunda pekerjaan' begini deh jadinya! numpuk semua dibelakaaang...
pusing,pusing,pusing.
udah, gue kesini tadi mau ngomongin makanan kok. apa yah?

oh ya, Spice! edisi Desember memuat artikel artikel bagus tentang makanan loh. (maaf yak kalo informasinya rada telat)



ada artikel tentang sedikit dari makanan around the globe, good food for mood, food inspired beauty, pekerjaan dibalik penyajian makanan didepan kita, dan yang paling ok ada list restoran seru yang harganya ramah sama kantong kita!
gue udah punya list mana aja restoran yang mau gue datangi, hehe gak sabar! aelah
gue jadi promosi. hehe maaf yaaa.
gue gembira karena makanan sekarang lebih dibahas, diperhatikan dan dihargai. acara acara tv tentang makanan semakin banyak, majalah majalah juga lebih banyak lagi membahas makanan bahwa makanan bukan hanya untuk dikunyah, telan kenyang dan selesai. there are so much more about it!

buat gue makanan itu seni, makanan itu keindahan, makanan itu budaya, makanan itu bentuk dari syukur, makanan itu bentuk dari kasih sayang dan sebagainya!

setuju gak kawan kawan?

celebrate food!
