One of my good friends and I have taken on the challenge of cooking one crock pot meal per week.
After watching the movie 'Julie & Julia,' a true story that is based on the life of legendary cook and culinary teacher, Julia Child, I was so inspired to begin writing about recipes. It delves into how she came to be such a magnificent cook. As well as 'Julie,' a woman who was so inspired by Julia Child's recipes and personality, that she took on the persona of Julia Child in her everyday life experiences, especially in the kitchen. I, myself have either created, modified, or just plain followed the ingredients according to the original owner for all the recipes that I will be posting to my blog from here on out. Please feel free to use whichever recipes you choose and whatever you do...........HAPPY COOKING :)
