About

Hi there! I’m Jane.
Thank you so much for stopping by. I am the Founder of Love, Jane. I have always had a passion for food from eating, cooking as well as entertaining. That passion started when I was a little girl watching my mama (grandmother) cook. Growing up, I saw Mama had a passion for cooking and entertaining. I watched and learned how to cook from her. My passion for cooking and entertaining started as I watched her face light up to serve dishes that went far beyond the palates. I saw then what preparing meals mean to me now. Cooking, for me, is an expression of love. Usually being invited somewhere it is the visitors who get the prepared meals. Most times for me, I’ll cook. It’s my way of saying, ‘Thank you for the invitation. Here (this dish) is your gift.’ I love creating dishes in the kitchen with my husband and our children. It’s one of the priceless moments that makes my heart full.
I love how universal food is. Food is everywhere. There are times where some dishes may require more time than other dishes, however, I try to share recipes that are easy to follow, convenient, and most definitely delicious.
The concept of Love, Jane is an extension of what food means to me. Food, to me, represents love, connection, memories, healing, celebration. Food also means understanding. Each and every meal doesn’t have all of the same meaning, but there’s most definitely at least one adjective attached like a branded label.
One of the ways I express my love is through cooking. If I had to describe, each meal is like a handwritten letter. Each sentence intentionally written with love and admiration for its recipients.
When we eat, we also create beautiful memories while doing so that we get to own in our hearts. May each recipe you cook with and for your family include meaningful conversations, fun times, and laughter.
From my family to yours!
