Bon Appetit and all that stuff

About 2 weeks ago I watched Julie & Julia, a charming movie about the life of Julia Child and the woman she inspired to change the way she lived. 


Julie Powell was determined to make every recipe in Julia Child's cookbook in one year, and *spoilers* she accomplished her goal. Not to mention this is a true story. Well, two true stories.


So, in a fit of whimsy, I decided to make a Banana Spice pie last week... from scratch!! It had an all-butter crust and syrupy banana filling with spices and a butter crumble overtop. I have to say, it was quite good.


But it made me think about Hayley G Hoover's post a little while ago, in which she talks about never being 'overweight' but still carrying pounds that you don't have to.


Starting today I am going to eat healthy. I have a normal BMI and my weight is proportional to my height, neither one out of range of the other. It's not that I don't eat well and it's not that I'm going on a diet, I just know I can do better. 


And that's what I'm going to do.
