The Proverbs 31 Cook

Well, as you have probably already noticed, I named this blog "The Proverbs 31 Cook."  When some friends and I decided to do this blog, I considered all sorts of names.  I landed on "The Proverbs 31 Cook" because I thought it described what we were all seeking to do - honor the Lord, even in our kitchens.  The "excellent woman" from Proverbs chapter 31 is a great example for us.  It says in verse 15, "she rises while it is yet night and provides food for her household..."  Notice, it doesn't say she provides "gourmet meals" for her family.  Now, I'm not sayin' she wasn't a great cook, but that's not the focus of what the writer was trying to say here.  She provided food.  You know what, sometimes for us that  might be hot dogs and chips.  That's ok.  The important thing is that she served her family. 
And that's what we want to do.  We want to serve our families.  And one way we can do that is by finding new recipes to make!  And voila!  A blog was born!  :)  But, again, we don't want this blog to JUST be about food.  We want it to be about the Lord - about our desire to follow Him and be more and more like that "excellent woman" from Proverbs 31.  So I have added this section to the blog - the "Proverbs 31 Section."  Here we will post our favorite verses, books, blogs, websites, quotes - anything really - about the Proverbs 31 woman or about being a godly wife and mother.  Check this section out if you need some encouragement in your daily walk with the Lord!  :)
