When Christmas Doesn’t Feel Merry or Bright

As a lover of good eatin', I am giddy about perfectly seasoned food, harmonious flavor, and surprising culinary experiences. I'm always learning as much as I can about ingredients, techniques, and rave-worthy recipes, and I just can't help but get excited about sharing those tips with you. Better food means greater joy around the table, which means better memories and happy bodies. Feasting was built into life, and I think we should learn to be really good at it. Celebrations centered around food reflect the lavish generosity and goodness of God, and they remind us of all the joy there is to find at His table.
