As I was watching Oprah today and her interview with Michael Pollan, author of Food Rules: An Eater's Manual, I realized something. Not only was his view on food cost vs health care very inspiring, but it also hit me with a new move coming up I could use this opportunity for a change in my life.
After many years without my grandmother, Helen, being around for family occasions and my ongoing project to type up all of her recipes, it hit me! We have all heard of, seen or know the reference to the 2009 movie, Julie & Julia, all based on Julia Child's life and cook book. So in light of a new decade and soon a move back home with my mother, I want to start a personal project of "real foods," food my grandmother would recognize. Just like Julie, I will work my way through my grandmothers recipes in the attempt to eat better, smarter and hopefully healthier. The Heather/ Helen project will start soon and it may not be a daily habit, but change is always something to be optimistic about.
