Boeuf Bourguignon II

A funny thing happened to me on the way to work. Actually before work and then I was late, but that doesn't matter really  because it's Friday, and I don't much like my job.

I sat down this morning with my cup of coffee and, out of curiousity, googled "Julie Julia Blog". I found this "juliepowell.blogspot.com". Nothing remarkable so far. 

Scrolling down three entries to December 21st 2009 I noticed the words "cow painting". Now my interest was piqued. The entry directed me to here Teresa Elliott.

WOW! I mean WOW!

Now I'm inspired. That's a painting and an artist.

And a funny coincidence. Or is it?

Postscript:
It turns out that the cow painting was in a People article promoting Julie's new book about her extramarital affair with a man named D. She got a movie deal from a crap book about her perfect marriage and had an affair to put back together that which she had torn asunder (she said it, not me). She probably suffers from depression too. 
So many coincidences there that I.....am reaching at straws.


That cow painting really is great.

There are no coincidences really, are there?
So now do you want to paint or eat?

Bloody hell it looks just like your cow! The again, cows tend to look quite similar. But ... uncanny.
