I await the film of “Maggie and Nigel” with eager anticipation

I went to see ‘Julie and Julia’ last week with Hubby and it was very good. Some moments of pure recognition for me, I must say, especially when Julie, the blogger, has a complete strop one day and says “what if I don’t cook them all? I will have failed and an entire year of my life will have been wasted”. I have had some melodramatic moments like this too! My friends are now insisting that, at the end of the year, I throw a dinner party with the ‘best of’ recipes, which I think is a great idea – it would round off the challenge nicely! Anyway – keep going. The whole point of this, as I have learned, is not necessarily cooking the whole lot (although I just HAVE to now!) but the coming across new and challenging recipes that you might not have had a got at – that has been the true delight for me.
