Powell first became famous through her blog, the Julie\/Julia Project, in which she detailed her struggles in 2002 to cook all 524 recipes from Child\u2019s \u201cMastering the Art of French Cooking, Volume 1\u201d in one year.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Julie Powell, the writer whose decision to spend a year cooking every recipe in Julia Child\u2019s \u201cMastering the Art of French Cooking\u201d led to the popular food blog, the Julie\/Julia Project, and a film starring Meryl Streep, has died at 49. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/kcSmqIQ46Q\">https:\/\/t.co\/kcSmqIQ46Q<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 The New York Times (@nytimes) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/nytimes\/status\/1587503512358985729?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 1, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d never read anyone like her,\u201d wrote Amanda Hesser, the founder of the website Food52. \u201cHer writing was so fresh, spirited \u2014 sometimes crude! \u2014 and so gloriously unmoored to any tradition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe wrote about food in a really human voice that sounded like people I knew,\u201d echoed food blogger Deb Perelman of Powell, who was twice awarded the James Beard Award. \u201cShe communicated that you could write about food even without going to culinary school, without much experience, and in a real-life kitchen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Her first book, called \u201cJulie and Julia: 365 Days, 524 Recipes, 1 Tiny Apartment Kitchen\u201d was published in 2005 with a second book, entitled \u201cCleaving: A Story of Marriage, Meat, and Obsession\u201d coming out in 2009.<\/p>\n<p>Powell admitted in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.orlandosentinel.com\/entertainment\/orl-story-julie-powell-interview-story.html\">2009 interview<\/a> that she gained 20 pounds the year she cooked all the recipes. Asked what she thought of Adams\u2019 portrayal of her in the movie, she answered:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe marriage scenes between her and Chris Messina, who plays my husband, feel really authentic, very much the way we talk to one another and just ARE together. And she gets the hysteria really well. She\u2019s much nicer than me, of course,\u201d she said. \u201cRead the book after seeing the movie and you will be shocked. She plays these sweet roles and I, to say the least, am not sweet! I\u2019m a complainer.
