Pinterest: I can only dream...

So I've been trying to eat healthier, and I've noticed 
I don't really eat enough fruit and veggies... 
However, I will very gladly eat them if they're 
in the form of a smoothie!
We just got a blender last night so I was super
excited to make a smoothie for breakfast
this morning! But when I took a sip...
It tasted WAY too healthy. lol :) 
Anyways... Hopefully it will turn out a 
little better tomorrow. I think I needed juice, berries,
or something more fruity in there, because
it basically tasted like grass. YUCK!

Anyhoo... Today's Pinterest board is...
{DRUM ROLL PLEASE!}
Now... If you know me well enough
or have followed my blog for awhile,
you know I LOVE LOVE LOVE
Paris... Even though I've never actually been 
there, I'd love to before the time I die!

"The Natural Ham"

Has anyone ever seen "Julie and Julia"? Well the movie was based on a famous chef; Julia Child. She is mostly known for bringing French cuisine to the American public. She wrote a cookbook called Mastering the Art of French Cooking and starred in her own TV show, the French Chef, which debuted in 1963. In 1948, her husband's work swayed them to Paris, France where her love for French cooking budded. She took classes at the world-famous cooking school there Le Cordon Bleu (where I would LOVE to go some day ;)) Julia had a spunky personality, and was never afraid of making mistakes. “Remember, if you are alone in the kitchen, who is going to see you?” she reassured her television audience. She was also known for her "tallness" because she was over 6'2"! Julia Child died just two days before her 92nd birthday, on August 13, 2004.

...And as Julia Child would say, "Bon Appetite!"
