It's 1950. WWII has been over for almost five years but Beatrice is experiencing her own personal conflict. Ten hour working days at the hair salon have taken its toll on her, physically and spiritually. War years may have ended with daily life transitioning into a new normal, but normal can be a struggle for a 35 year old single working girl.
Her sisters are married and have started families of their own. It’s the “baby boom” years and Beatrice longs for a family of her own. Instead, Beatrice lives with her aging parents and younger brother, Raymond, who carries scars from his time at war in France. Turning toward the kitchen for solitude and joy, Beatrice finds relief from her frustrations. It’s there Mama gives practical advice for life.
During a visit at her local bakery, a neighbor gifts her with a lovely cookbook. This gem opens a new world of baking to Beatrice. As she begins her cooking journey, anticipation fills her heart. Maybe, just maybe, marriage might be an ingredient for her future.
While things are cooking up in the kitchen, Beatrice’s heart is divided between two handsome suitors. Will she find a recipe for true love witn advice from mama? Or will she seek Godly direction in prayer?
