I'm not sure if you all remember last year when GOOP came out...but it was considered a little bit of a joke. Not just because of the silly name, but because people thought that Gwyneth Paltrow wanted to be the next Oprah or Martha Stewart.
What is GOOP? It is a website that Gwyneth Paltrow created to share her thoughts on everything from travel to food to fashion to relationship advice. She names them in 6 categories: Make. Go. Get. Do. Be. See. The website is purely a portal to sign-up for the GOOP email newsletter and to post past newsletters.
I signed up a couple months ago and I am quite pleased with the content, specifically with the newsletters concentrating on "Make."
Gwyneth has always been progressive with trying Veganism, macrobiotic diets and such...but what I didn't know is how much of a foodie she was. When she was younger, she spent a lot of time in Spain with an exchange program and later went on a culinary journey through Spain with Mario Batali in Spain - On the Road Again (a pretty good PBS miniseries, I've watched).
With her well to do upbringing (born into a Hollywood family), her A-list celebrity status, her progressive health trials and culinary adventures with professional chefs...she has put together quite an interesting set of newsletters. A taste of some of the topics she highlights in her "Make" newsletters are: Babycakes, a Vegan Lunch, Mario Batali, Antipasti, The Cookie and so on.
Try it out before you make fun.
Gwyneth owes you a solid!
