Let the Biscuits Burn: Cultivating Real-Life Hospitality in a World Craving Connection

Abby Turner Kuykendall is a newly married thirtysomething who grew up in a home that taught her marriage is what happens after you graduate. But after graduating from Ouachita Baptist University, she went to graduate school at Baylor--single and mourning every sense of the word. That led her to discover the power of the table in building a flourishing, God-centered community. Over the next five years, Abby developed her love of food, photography, and human behavior. This ultimately led her to begin her blog, A Table Top Affair. While Abby found her stride in her corporate career, she found meaningful purpose around her table, which led her to write her debut cookbook, The Living Table. Abby lives with her husband, Kyle, in northwest Arkansas. They welcomed their son, John Maverick, in April 2024.
