The Julie/Julia Project

Recently I tried searching for Julie Powell's blog, I though I might have found it but wasn't certain so I didn't look at it very much. Besides what I am interested in is what she wrote in 2002 while she was actually doing the Project, not now...and I definitely didn't want to try and navigate back 8 years.
I was just googling Mastering the Art of French Cooking, trying to get a good picture of the book to steal the colors from with my Colorzilla add-on on Firefox, when I was inspired to add the word blog after the title of the book. And guess what I found!
That's right the real deal Julie/Julia Project blog posts starting with #1 way back on August 25, 2002. So for your reading pleasure: http://blogs.salon.com/0001399/2002/08/25.html
From what I figure if you want to read along with her, you just need to click the dates on the calendar on the right.

Oh how I wish I knew about all of this while I was on bed rest and desperate for something to do, not know when I have too much I should be doing but want to avoid.

Well it only goes up to the end of November. i forget the date exactly and the coments nebver get higher nor are accessable.

my take: this was all posted for the book and publicity. IF there ever was a real blog it isnt here..
doubt it really existed.
