This is the logo we created with the help of my talented, computer animator, brother! The silver frame around the chalkboard is part of our story. You see, when my husband and I owned Jahva House, this hung on the wall over the counter. The board was covered with coffee drinks and prices. It was eclectic just like our coffee shop. Our coffee station was an old secretary that we had painted green and it was full of sugars, stirrers, lids and half and half. It sat right next to the stone fire … [Read more...]
From Dryer Lint to Dreams
By on October 6, 2009 with
We were on the phone again tonight... one of us Twittering and Facebook-ing, one of us loading dishes in the dishwasher and waiting for a teenager to get off the computer. And, we are both reeling with giddiness! Why you ask? Well, one year and a half ago, two friends (and their husbands - whether they liked it or not!), set out to find an adventure! We weren't really sure where it would lead or how we would do it. In fact, we didn't always feel very - clever. One of us didn't even know how to cut and paste, yet, let … [Read more...]

Lingering Before Returning
By on September 2, 2009 with
Today is the end of an era. Today, I sent my little-est flower into the world of all day kindergarten. To bloom and grow... So, for the first time in fifteen years I am going to have something I haven't had in a while - time. Now, that the kids will be back in school, we will again be able to focus on our business here at LoveFeast Table. Kristin and I discussed this in detail this past summer...during one of our high powered meetings. Of course, we will still have our hands full with chauffeuring, … [Read more...]
Where It All Started…Golden West Cafe
By on July 16, 2009 with
It was about a year ago. Chris Ann was in Baltimore for a visit. She had just come out of a dreary Minnesota winter. I planned a day of "art-inspiration-creativity-fun stops and shops". We went to ArHaus and were quickly inspired by the vignettes and even had a great conversation with the artist/installer there. I saw Chris Ann take a deep, refreshing breath and she even smiled. We then went to Clipper Mill to scope out the artists and to peek in Woodberry Kitchen. We walked around and watched glass artists, iron artists … [Read more...]

Cookbook Events for Wanna Be Foodbloggers
By on September 11, 2008 with
We couldn't believe our good fortune. We had invented our self proclaimed jobs: food bloggers and cookbook writers and had decided we were big. At least, big in our own minds. So, bolstered by our gusto, guts, and the need to quite frankly, just get out of the house, we were going to do this thing. We had psyched ourselves up, convinced our husbands (it didn't take long, we're a force to be reckoned with), and told our kids (mommies can't be quitters)--there would be no turning back now, be it, rain, floods, lightening, or … [Read more...]

Here we are! Four friends toasting the beginning of our blog: The Love Feast Table. The purpose of our blog is to begin a discussion that we hope spreads about friends and family, and gathering at the table around good food, and of course life's adventures! We have had so many amazing memories around the table, many of those times we thought too good not to share! So, we are going to begin a conversation about these memories, past, present, and hopefully future! We are hoping you, the reader, will come join us at our … [Read more...]
