Today, we’ll shift our focus from comforting sick and convalescing friends to showing up for those who are hurting emotionally. From Mrs. Jennings of Sense and Sensibility trying to revive a jilted Marianne with dried cherries to Cassie Logan of Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry caring for her traumatized neighbor, the heroines teach us that food made with love can be ultra healing.
Shownotes:
Cherries wearing nightgowns. Southern Crowder Peas. Healing Caramel Cake. This quirky trio of edibles all have one thing in common: our favorite literary ladies employed them in their attempts to comfort like a heroine.
As we explored the solace-bringing practices described in some beloved books, we gleaned gleaming takeaways about how to lift someone’s spirits, soothe a heartbroken and humiliated soul, and even how to help a grieving friend through food and drink (rosehip tea, anyone?).
