Kernel of Truth
I once had a blog called “Daddy Winebucks” where I wrote about the intersection of wine and parenthood. Over a few months I tried to replicate Joe Dimaggio’s 56-game hitting streak by “hitting” one wine per day from Trader Joe’s until I found a bad bottle. This book is a lot like that for cooking.
Product Description
The bestselling memoir that’s “irresistible….A kind of Bridget Jones meets The French Chef” (Philadelphia Inquirer) that inspired Julie & Julia, the major motion picture directed by Nora Ephron, starring Amy Adams as Julie and Meryl Streep as Julia.
Nearing 30 and trapped in a dead-end secretarial job, Julie Powell reclaims her life by cooking every single recipe in Julia Child’s legendary Mastering the Art of French Cooking in the span of one year. It’s a hysterical, inconceivable redemptive journey — life rediscovered through aspics, calves’ brains and cré me brûlée.Binding Type: Paperback
