Yesterday was my cooking class and it was one of the top moments of this year. When I was little I would play teacher (didn’t most of us?), drawing what I thought were algebraic equations on the large green chalkboard with my stuffed animals as students. It wasn’t just these living room moments as MissContinue reading “Finding You at the Table”

Generosity at the Table
There are those moments in life when life is sucking up everything, and it feels as though it’s a daily struggle to keep going. I’ve been there and that place is an old unwelcome friend. I know that seasons ebb & flow, and I will find myself there again in the future. But, I’m convincedContinue reading “Generosity at the Table”
When We Feed the Belly of the Soul
The night is calling me to rest my head. If it were up to me this morning I would have crawled back into bed & slept another hour or two. The day is gone & there is still much to do for tomorrow’s class. I spoke on the phone with the head sous chef asContinue reading “When We Feed the Belly of the Soul”
Pouring Yourself Out
Isn’t the best part about giving a gift in seeing the recipient’s face partake in it? It’s what brings me so much joy in cooking. I get to hear my girl’s affirm me with their, “MMMs,” while Ben affirms verbally time and again. During my birthday party this summer, I was serving my friends byContinue reading “Pouring Yourself Out”
Small Kitchen (Day 3)
Yesterday while putting away dishes I was struck with the smallness of my kitchen. When Ben and I got married, our first apartment was relatively average among newlywed apartment kitchen standards; but, without a dishwasher. Our next home would be a duplex, which had the kitchen as the home base for the washer and dryer.Continue reading “Small Kitchen (Day 3)”
Share the Table. 31 Days 2013.
Share the Table. What does this even mean? One of my favorite artists is Nikki McClure. Her method is using paper cuts by using an Xacto knife. I have her calendar hanging by means of a paper clip on my entryway board. Her pieces usually have this lovely hidden message within the image. MostContinue reading “Share the Table. 31 Days 2013.”
Another October Means 31 days of…
I think this just might be against my better judgement, but I’m going to join in with 31 days of writing/blogging this October. If you have been a follower of Redeeming the Table, then you’ll remember last year’s Oktoberfeast and the year before that of Myers-Briggs. This year is going to follow a semi-differentContinue reading “Another October Means 31 days of…”
What I’m Into (June 2013 Edition)
It seems too soon to be done with Fourth of July, school but a distant memory and berry picking, swimming and sunshine in full swing. Alas, I wave my white flag to the mercy of summer and submit willingly. However, before I go pouring another gin and tonic with grapefruit, let me recap you onContinue reading “What I’m Into (June 2013 Edition)”
Eating Ethically (Practices of Eating
There are those who are passionate about fighting Monsanto, GMO’s, legislation against raw milk farmers and the like. I am not one of those people. At least not in the constantly research, march in protest and wave angry hands. It’s just not me. You won’t see RTT Facebook page filled with repostings of why weContinue reading “Eating Ethically (Practices of Eating”
What I’m Into (May 2013 Edition)
1. Favorite Bites May has been hit or miss in the food area. I haven’t been creating as much in the kitchen, which always tends to dry up a bit of my soul. I was invited to my friend’s husband’s new restaurant with their soft opening. It was really nice, well thought out, and manyContinue reading “What I’m Into (May 2013 Edition)”
