Not sure if the name I've chosen for my blog is particularly apposite. How could it be 'Sam Crumb's Occasional Blog' if I have already written four blogs in the space of a few hours and all on the same day? Oh, well. My inspiration for writing a blog came from a hugely enjoyable dvd we watched recently called 'Julie and Julia.' It combined many of the things I enjoy so much - good food, wine, France, a well-written story, humour, romance - and it came with a free cook book, a digest from Mastering the Art of French Cooking. In fact we're eating from it tonight. The famous Beef Burgundy recipe. In the film, the modern day heroine starts a blog aiming to cook every recipe from Julie Child's book within a single year. Loved every minute of it and Meryl Streep is a hoot. Mind you, Amy Adams is adorable. Time for some ginger tea to warm up. At least the snow has stopped.
