"No stranger to heartache, Carole Holiday artfully braids together her story of overwhelming loss with biblical insights and delicious recipes from the little cottage on the lane--the cooking school she once owned. Carole's journey offers hope that after the ravages of grief and despair, God can bring good back to life through faith, food, and fellowship.

How do you survive when everything that gave meaning to your life suddenly disappears Grief can spark the question, God, when will you see me Carole Holiday has weathered heartbreaking loss and the despair that whispers, ""I don't know who I am anymore."" Through her trials, including divorce, job loss, and heart surgery, she has learned that deep grief carves space for a deeper ability to love.

Readers who have been shredded by suffering, who have lost hope in God or in life being good again will

unpack what it means to be made in God's image; learn how to redirect doubts and despair toward a God-filled identity and purpose; understand that loss offers an enormous capacity to feel more deeply; discover that even though rejected by those they most loved, they still matter to God; and be reminded of the truth that sadness and faith are not mutually exclusive.

In her unique, lyrical writing style, Carole shares her story of grief and explores biblical teaching that offers a God-given purpose after pain. As an extra dose of comfort, she seasons her story with savory recipes from a cooking school she once owned, where she learned firsthand the healing that takes place around the table. Carole's humor and warm encouragement gently remind readers that God has good for them--even in a season of severe loss."

Carole Holiday spent twenty years on business stages encouraging entrepreneurs. She subsequently owned a cooking school located in a turn-of-the-century cottage. At a season in life when many would retire, her daughter challenged her to write. She shares stories from years of shenanigans and serendipities and, yes, heartbreaks. Carole lives in Costa Mesa, California, happily surrounded by her grandchildren who still think she's really cool. She would respectfully ask you not to tell them otherwise.
