Julie and Julia

How are the concepts you are currently learning about in class/school reflected in the movie Julie & Julia?

The movie Julie & Julia has to do with not giving up. I think the fact that we are trying to create a blog and have fun with it, has to do with the same concept.

 -Accept that doing anything well requires hard work.

Julia wasn’t satisfied to take culinary classes or write recipes off-the-cuff — her kitchen was her laboratory. While in culinary school, she’d come home from class and spend hours working out the hows and whys of what she’d learned that day. When writing recipes, she’d test every ingredient and measurement, experimenting with mayonnaise until she was certain no one could possibly have written more on the subject than she had. “I had never taken anything so seriously in  my life — husband and cat excepted — and I could hardly bear to be away from the kitchen,” she wrote.

I would say this career lesson is very important for two reasons. First, I completely agree with the fact that you have to work hard to achieve great things in life.  Second, I also agree that sometimes you may not succeed but you can't let that get you down.
