Julie Powell

Today I went to Housing Works Bookstore Cafe for the event of Julie Powell who wrote "Julie and Julia".

I liked that book so it was really interesting to see herself.
It was the event of promoting her book "Cleaving".

This book about her experience of her 6 months training at butcher in NY.... ummmm really interesting.
And in this event she read a few parts of this book for us.
Her way of  expression was so direct and detail especially when she was working in the butcher.
So I won't recommend to read this book if you are vegan or vegetarian who really can't touch animal products but if not I think it's good to know about what we are eating. Even you are vegan or vegetarian it's good to know what your friends are eating.
And there is not only the story in the butcher but also about the travel to other country that she did after butcher training.

So I haven't read this book yet but it must be interesting to read this.

The impression of Julie Powell was a little bit different from the book but I could tell how she is strong, she has her own thoughts and opinions and especially how she loves food!!
