Ratatouille

OK… who hasn’t seen this delicious movie? Ratatouille is officially my new favorite animated movie, perhaps even my current favorite movie! Confession: I love animated flicks, and have about 20 assorted Disney VHS Tapes that I can’t seem to part with. Funny thing is that we no longer own a VHS player… what’s a girl to do, huh? I’ve been collecting them since high school… and yes, that was many moons ago! Darn the creators of DVD!

Anyway, now that I’ve shared a slightly embarrassing confession, lets dish about the movie.  Its about a rat that has a very well developed palate.  And he cooks… very well.  He teams up with a gawky kid that can’t cook worth a flip and the two of them cook at a famous restaurant in Paris.  I don’t want to give away too much, but its a definite must see.

  3. Oh this movie was so fun to watch. They made the food look so good! There’s a recipe out there for the actual Ratatouille that Thomas Keller created for this movie and I’ll have to find it again so I can cook it up for all to see.

    We all loved the movie in my household too. It’s so well done and I’d never thought I’d say that a rat would be so loveable :)

    We are kindred spirits. I can’t let go og my Disney VHS collection and I don’t have a VCR either! Damn that Disney vault and the invention of the DVD! I can never seem to catch a vault release of the Little Mermaid or Beauty and the Beast.
