Powell's blog became a book and later the Nora Ephron film "Julie & Julia," starring Meryl Streep and Amy Adams.

[Salon.com in 2005](https://www.salon.com/2005/10/12/powell_27/), Powell described the pleasure of blogging in the nascent days of the form — and how her audience kept her going. Those who were unaware of the original Julie/Julia Project soon came to know it through the 2009 Nora Ephron film Julie & Julia, which starred Amy Adams as Powell and Meryl Streep as Julia Child, for which Streep earned an Oscar nomination. The blog was emblematic of the early days of food blogging. “I don’t know if I would have ever come to that realization if I hadn’t been keeping a blog. Powell, who was nearing 30 when the blog launched, tackled everything from clafoutis to lobster thermidor, all from the confines of the tiny Queens, New York apartment that she shared with her husband, Eric. While Powell would detail her challenges around cooking with ingredients like aspic, she would also expound on her personal life, quickly growing an audience that was as interested in Powell’s cooking successes and failures as it was in her feelings and relationships.

The groundbreaking food writer's blog inspired a best-selling book and a hit Nora Ephron movie.

It followed her experience learning to be a butcher along with the story of her having an affair and then her husband also having an affair. The book sold over a million copies and—along with Child’s own memoir My Life In France—became the basis of Nora Ephron’s Julie & Julia, a sort of double-biopic about Powell and Child. An aspiring writer at the time, Powell began her blog—The Julie/Julia Project—in 2002 when she was about to turn 30.

Julie Powell was an inspiration to my generation of food bloggers, and was hilarious and kind in our interactions, especially when discussing our home state of Texas. Cooking through Julia Child's books, she made Child relevant to a new generation, and wrote about cooking in a fresh, conversational, this-is-my-real life tone that was rare back then.— smitten kitchen (@smittenkitchen) "There was a lot of jumping over cords and almost tripping on stuff that was stacked on the floor. I threw the food mill down, there's watercress everywhere, I was sobbing." "The last thing in my head would be to exploit her in any way. Sending my condolences to her family and friends.— Lisa Fain (@homesicktexan) On Twitter last week, she had complained of feeling ill. But all of them were looking for help in a way that we were not always equipped to give. "There were quite a few dinners at 11pm or midnight. But at the same time, I totally get it." There were always leftovers, and sometimes like a big hunk of pig's leg just sort of stuck in there." "Which of course is extremely painful to hear," Powell said.

The food writer rose to prominence with her blog-turned-book-turned-movie, "Julie & Julia."

It later came out as a paperback titled "Julie and Julia: My Year of Cooking Dangerously." She documented her experiment — the trials, errors and victories — on a blog for Salon.com titled the "Julie/Julia Project."

"The way they held a knife in their hand was like an extension of themselves," she said. Powell revealed she had an affair, the pain of loving two men at once, of her fondness for sadomasochism and even a bout of self-punishing sex with a stranger.
