I was watching the movie Julie and Julia last night and was inspired to write more blog posts!
The movie (trailer here) is a true story about Julie Powell - who was a secretary in a dead-end job who decided to try out Julia Child's recipe book one recipe at a time for a year.
For those of you who don't know Julia Child - she is the mother of American French cooking who wrote a cookbook whilst following her husband (a US Ambassador) throughout France and Europe.
The story was quaint because it paralleled the projects that both Julie and Julia went through decades apart. I found it particularly inspiring because it showed how important it was to back yourself and stick to your ideas!
At a time where the world is in so much turmoil we can all remember that the projects we choose on the side can sometimes give us meaning in life and save us from the sheer monotony of boredom.
What project are you working on at the moment? Dare you to share it!

What's Up Jono?
