In response to a number of questions about how much wine to use in the boeuf bourginon...
Well, it depends on the size of the bottle and how much beef. Here's a rule of thumb: Make sure that to start, the wine comes up to cover all of the beef. How's that? Helpful enough?
And really, if it's too saucy, you can serve it with a slotted spoon.
And all the references to Julie and Julia? Will you be horrified if I tell you I've not seen it? I know! It's on the someday list, but there are too many other things ahead of it for now...
You would probably love the movie! It makes me want to cook. :)

Well, I got the movie in my mailbox about 2 1/2 weeks ago, put it in and fell asleep after and hour. I'm determined to watch it before I send it back.

You can pass on the movie Joanne. It's really disappointing. The only good parts were those with Meryl Streep. Thanks for the wine tip!
