Today was all about food and I loved every minute of it! It started off at 10 am with high tea at the Victoria Room in the historic Queen Victoria building. A group of us planned this after learning that the movie Julie and Julia was *finally* opening in Australia. What could be a better precursor to seeing this movie than eating scones (with jam and clotted cream), finger sandwiches and sweets? After our bellies were full of fancy tea and food, we headed a few blocks down the street to see the movie. I thought Meryl Streep's impersonation of Julia Child was spot on and I enjoyed learning more about her introduction to cooking in Paris and her path to noteriety later in life. Overall, a very cute movie. Then we shopped around a bit until we were (believe it or not) hungry again! We headed to the food hall at David Jones, which sort of resembles the ones in Marks & Spencer and Harrods in London...a very gourmet selection of things to buy with lots of different areas to sit and eat various cuisines. I then rolled myself home!
