Anyone who knows Julia knows she's an incredibly passionate person, and I couldn't wait to get her on MBSing to chat about one of the many things she's passionate about. Possible topics included feminism, childhood/nannying, social networks, drinking, Beyoncé, family, and a handful of others, but at the top of the episode my lovely roommate Stephanie drew Julia's topic out of a hat as an unbiased observer. Thus sealing our topic of discussion: food. We explored the good and bad emotions attached to food (comfort, joy, guilt...), the progression of Julia's tastes from exploratory meals she made as a child to Chicago's fine dining options, and a hypothetical restaurant where Julia would expertly pair a TV show or film with her patrons' meals. I laughed until my stomach hurt during this recording because Julia is just incredibly funny and also there were probs some hunger grumbles after all the food talk. Eat a sandwich, then listen to us dish!
