Investigating Food Used in Novels

This month’s food scene and recipe comes from Shelia Stovall’s Every Life Filled with Purpose, book #3 in The Weldon Novels series. (Read on for book giveaway opportunity.)

Character Carson Williams is looking for a new beginning in the small town community of Weldon.

Here’s the Scene:

Carson sat in his black Hummer holding a pastry box. Why the owner of the diner thought he’d want a box of fried raspberry pies when he’d not been able to eat his lunch was a mystery to him, but it would have been impolite to refuse the gift.

His hands still trembled from the incident, so he opened the music app on his phone and selected his favorite playlist for meditation. With eyes closed, his thoughts wandered to the injured woman’s daughter. Why did she look so familiar? She was pretty, with her shoulder-length hair the same shade as his own. Something deep within him had stirred when she stared at him with those dark eyes filled with concern. There was a connection between them. Not an attraction, more like … He couldn’t come up with the right word, the right feeling.

Everything about today had been unusual. The older woman’s shocked expression and then … fear. She’d looked downright terrified. But why? Then there was the peculiar way her daughter couldn’t stop staring at him. Stop thinking.

Carson focused on the music and his breathing. Some time later, his stomach rumbled, and he smiled. Dot had been right when she’d said he’d be hungry later. He opened the pastry box, removed a pie, and bit into it. The raspberry filling was tangy and sweet, but what he really craved was company. Maybe, he’d stop by his neighbor’s house and visit with Roy and Ovaleta Mayhew. Ovaleta was always trying to feed him something as she loved to bake.

His elderly neighbors were some of his favorite people. The only thing he didn’t like about them was Ovaleta’s penchant for asking questions. However, the pies and cakes she plied him with were almost worth the aggravation. He shouldn’t mind her nosiness or her match-making schemes. After all, she’d been the one to send Sparky knocking on his door with a coconut cake. And he didn’t really have anything to hide, but he knew Ovaleta wouldn’t approve of his previous career. Carson took another bite of pie and moaned. Maybe he should just tell Ovaleta about his past and get it over with. Roy was always watching a sports channel. He might stumble across an old broadcast featuring him in a tournament.

 

Author Shelia Stovall shares this scrumptious recipe for fried raspberry pies— a specialty at Dot’s diner in Weldon.

More about Every Life Filled with Purpose:

Welcome to Weldon, Kentucky, where no one can keep a secret forever.

Imagine discovering a place where the locals treat you with warmth and welcome you like family. Carson Williams finds such a place when he visits his deceased mother’s hometown of Weldon. The atmosphere in the community creates a deep yearning in Carson, and he thinks Kentucky is the perfect place for a new beginning. Carson hopes the country life will lead to emotional healing from PTSD.

While Carson is having lunch at the local diner with Sparky Compton, a young doctor who’s captured his heart, Virginia Willoughby collapses. Sparky springs into action, but Carson struggles to maintain control of his emotions. Mrs. Willoughby’s daughter, Emma Baker, arrives, and the magnetic pull of Emma’s gaze confuses Carson. She reminds him of someone, but who? Later, Emma wonders why she can’t stop thinking about the mysterious stranger when her heart belongs to pastor Luke Davis.

But there are secrets in the small town of Weldon—and they will impact both Carson and Emma.
