In August, Joan, Ellen and I saw the movie Julie & Julia. After seeing the wonderful dishes made in the movie, we decided to have a Julia Child's night. Joan made the infamous Boeuf Bourguignon which was delicious. I attempted to make the almond chocolate cake. At first I thought it didn't rise correctly, but after looking at pictures on the web, it's a pretty flat cake. Ellen decided to make bread although got the recipe online since there aren't any in the original cookbook. She ended up buying it after an attempt at making it ended up in the trash.
