His Table & Mine: A Treasured Collection of Recipes and Poetry. Nourishment for the Body and Soul. Hardcover – December 10, 2025

His Table & Mine is far more than a collection of recipes, it is an invitation into a life lived around the table, where food, faith, memory, and community weave together into something sacred. Through heartfelt storytelling, soul-stirring poetry, and a lifetime of cherished dishes, Susan Baldi, affectionately known as “Mamma,” offers a cookbook that nourishes both body and spirit.The journey begins at His Table, where readers are reminded of Christ’s unfathomable love and the divine invitation to rest, belong, and be renewed. Scripture, poetry, and reflection illuminate the spiritual significance of gathering, feasting, and receiving God’s grace. It is a gentle call to sit, to savor, and to be transformed.From there, readers are welcomed to My Table, where Susan shares her vibrant upbringing in the small mountain town of McCloud, California, surrounded by Italian tradition, family gardens, old-world cooking, and a community knit tightly together. She recounts childhood meals, the women who shaped her love for the kitchen, seasons of heartbreak that left her table empty, and the redemptive work of God that brought life, joy, and celebration back to that same table once again.Across more than a dozen recipe chapters, from appetizers and breads to pasta, soups, sides, and sweets, Susan offers dishes refined over decades of cooking for family, friends, pastors, neighbors, and even elite guests at a private resort. Every recipe is selected with intention, perfected with patience, and presented with the warmth of someone who believes that food is an expression of love. Interwoven throughout are Susan’s original poems, crafted to comfort, inspire, and draw readers closer to the heart of Jesus.This cookbook celebrates:The sacred power of the table as a place of gathering, healing, and togethernessThe beauty of culinary creativity, from garden-to-table simplicity to elegant multi-course feastsThe joy of hospitality, where perfection is unnecessary but love is essentialThe legacy of family and faith, carried from generation to generation through shared mealsWith unforgettable stories, soul-deep reflections, and recipes that range from nostalgic comfort foods to elegant Italian favorites, His Table & Mine invites readers to rediscover the magic of slowing down, gathering close, and savoring both God’s goodness and the gift of each other.This is not just a cookbook—it is a celebration of life, love, and the sacredness of the table.
