Summary

One of my favorite things about Kelly Minter is her garden. (Yes, duh I love her Bible teaching and I love her friendship and I love her nonprofit work, and we talk about ALL of that.) But her garden is something special. The way Kelly tends to her vegetables and focuses on their growth is how she is in every relationship as well. I admire her so much.

Her newest book, A Place at the Table, is one I've been WAITING for. A cookbook with memoir moments, this one is a must have.
