Cleaving by Julie Powell

While I didn’t love the Julie Powell part of the Julie and Julia movie (and the book didn’t make me swoon), I did feel a connection to her. After all, I am a food blogger, a bit of a workoholic, and prone to random stress-related breakdowns. It made me really happy to see how much her husband stood by her and put up with her crazy schedule (even if she didn’t always totally deserve it) and how everything paid off in “the end.” Good for them!

Until I read Cleaving. And I realized that Julie Powell is a huge bi-atch. And a complete idiot for treating her husband the way she does. And that he doesn’t have enough self-confidence to tell her to shove it. Of course, I give her lots of credit for being so honest in her writing, but that doesn’t make me hate her any less.

I kind of wish I never read Cleaving and could have kept my semi-fond image alive.

Lip gloss “makes you shiny… but it’s dangerous.” UM!! I don’t even want to think about how much I’ve eaten! Come on, Dr. Oz.

These are addicting.

Cleaving by Julie Powell. I feel like I have to read it, but it’s definitely making me like Julie Powell even less.
