Update on Eat, Pray, Love

March 28, 2008 by Kristy Nuttall

I just finished reading the Italian section and I must admit that I LOVED the first section. I SO want to travel to Italy after reading it. I won’t give details because, even though I thought I had to be the last one to read this book, I realize after the last post, that I’m SO not.

In celebration of the Eatting section this morning, I bought a small package of chocolate covered Bing cherries - OMG!! They are heavenly. So not on my diet, but it was my lil celebration after reading a whole section on just enjoying it - haha

I started the section on India … Cathy … your crazy brain is mentioned in there … only it’s “Monkey Brain”. I read the paragraph it’s mentioned in twice (because it’s SO me) and thought to myself, “Cathy is going to crack up here.”

So for those of you who are reading along with me … where are you in the book?

The Italy part was one of my faves of the book - I absolutely LOVE how she describes Loneliness and Fear (are those the two who follow her home from the trattoria?)
How they crowd her room and put their feet up on the coffee table, willing her to come sit with them…
Brilliant allegorical writing in my opinion…
My girlfriend, Shannon and I are talking about doing what she is about to do in India - you’ll see.
The funny thing is - and you’ll totally get it once you read it…that will SO BE ME…or YOU…or CATHY…or anyone of us
Keep me posted.

Hello Anna!!!

Welcome to our fun blog…
I agree with you - I enjoyed the first two parts better than the 3rd even though I love Indonesia more than any other place on Earth.

Keep checking back with us…

I’m in the India section of the book now. Loved the Italy section. I’ve always wanted to go to Italy so it so spoke to those dreams. What I love about her writing is to take something that we all feel and make us realize that we are all here on that journey fighting to realize it is part of the human condition rather than that we are flawed because we feel a certain way.

Can’t wait to have more discussion of it with you all!

Hey Anna .. I have had a ton of people who tell me that I live my life similar to what that book/story talks about but I haven’t read it yet. I’ll have to check it out

Will also check out the pictures. We are in the process of changing our blog over to it’s own site. We’ll post a note in here once it’s all done - hope you’d like to come along for the ride with us to our new home.

I love meeting new people.
