The Healing Magic of Cobbler
The Healing Magic of Cobbler: Episode 13 of Gina’s TableThis week’s episode was an absolute joy to record. There’s something extraordinary about being in the kitchen, creating something delicious that brings people together. As I think about all the wonderful souls gathered around my table, my heart overflows with joy.
This summer has been a journey through loss and grief for me, but making cobblers to share has been a lifeline. It gives me a sense of control and purpose. Baking has always been my go-to stress reliever. If you see me kneading bread in the kitchen, you can bet some stress is being worked out. The beauty of baking is that it allows me to take a few simple ingredients and, in just an hour or so, create something complete and tangible. In a world where so many things feel unfinished, this is a small but significant victory.
But baking is more than just a stress reliever for me. These cobblers, and the other dishes I make time and again, have opened doors to new friendships and deepened existing ones. Jesus set a powerful example of this—whenever He had something important to teach, He often did it around tables and food. He understood the profound connection that happens when we share a meal.
I cherish the moments around the table. It’s where we share stories, laugh together, sometimes cry together, and create lasting memories. This week’s episode is a celebration of that magic. Join me in the kitchen as I whip up a cobbler and share the heartwarming stories of how this humble dessert has the power to heal and bring people together.
