My big weekend outing = going to see "Julie & Julia." It was about all we could handle after me being sick most of the week and Gavin spending the entire day in the extreme hot sun doing his good deed for the month and running the "Fill-A-Mini" food drive at Highland Park Market (side note, I am so proud of him!). Back on point, the only thing I can say is that the movie was ENCHANTING!!! Why didn't the reviewers describe it as such? Actually maybe they did and I didn't read them. It was delightful. I was so sad when it ended because I wanted it to keep going on and on. I loved every single character to bits. There were scenes of Paris. The entire audience couldn't stop laughing. And Gavin probably didn't notice this, but I actually got a little teary-eyed at times because the characters were just so lovable and relatable (I have no idea how to spell that). I am super psyched to have an evening with my mom to see it again. Such fun!!! I wish I could master the art of French cooking! Maybe I will have to make a pilgrimage to see Julia Child's kitchen at the Smithsonian too.
Bon Appetit!
