Have you watched it?

julie and JuliaOne of my readers  gave me this movie as a Christmas gift.  I am a bit ashamed to admit I watched it for the first time this week. Only took me 3 months….lol.  This blog takes so much time that I do not take much time for “me”.  During the day I try really hard to be Mom and Wife, but early in the morning and once the kids go to bed, I am A Thrifty Mom the blogger.  Which does not always leave time for me to just be Sarah.

But the other night Matt and I snuggled on the couch and enjoyed this movie.  Matt has always gotten a kick out of Julia child, he use to watch her cooking show as a kid.  I have to admit I get frustrated at most movies today, most are vulgar, trashy and leave me feeling irritated that there is so much bad language, sex and violence in entertainment something I prefer to keep out of my home.  But this movie was rather good, for a  nice change.

I had to laugh when Julie decided to start a blog in the movie.  First she had to have her husband set it up for her ( Matt had to set mine up too)  The phone call she had with her mother totally cracked me up, as she had to defend why she wanted to start a blog and that it was ok if no one read it.  I had the exact same phone call with several people when I started my blog.  I could really relate with her….over all it was a great show and a very enjoyable 2 hours snuggling with Matt.  Thanks Helen for the movie!
