Curvies The Lack of Common Sense: Plus Size Women Series: Six Bakers, One God, and a Recipe for Ordering Husbands, (Paperback)

<p>In 1890, six plus-size Christian bakers graduate from culinary school with dreams bigger than their rolling pins. They've saved every penny, prayed every prayer, and entered a school project that wins first place - only to be told by the dean that their idea <i>"lacks common sense."</i></p><p>Their so-called foolish plan?<br>To move west to Kansas, purchase adjoining plots of land, and open a women-owned bakery and bread school where they could teach, feed, and bless a growing frontier town - all without a husband in sight.</p><p>With faith (and five hundred dollars apiece) they board a westbound train, praying their dreams rise like yeast under Heaven's watchful eye.</p><p>But life on the prairie proves harder than the flour sacks they carry. A kindhearted act of sharing their food with a hungry couple sparks rumors, jealousy, and opposition from local businessmen who think the women have no place in commerce. Soon, their generosity and independence make them the target of lies so scandalous they could curdle milk.</p><p>They're accused of everything from gambling to stealing husbands.<br>Their property is seized by a corrupt judge. Their reputations are shredded in the local newspaper. And their dreams - the bakery, the school, <i>the Mustard Seed Row</i> - are lost in a whirlwind of deceit.</p><p>Yet where shame rises, grace runs deeper.</p><p>When a mysterious accident befalls the very men who tried to ruin them, God begins turning their story upside down. The same accusers who once mocked them now find themselves bedridden, humbled, and... oddly grateful. As the women bring them bread, tea, and forgiveness instead of revenge, redemption begins to knead its way through broken hearts.</p><p>One letter at a time, love starts to rise again.<br>And before spring, Kansas will witness the most astonishing miracle of all -<br>six weddings in one day between the women once scorned and the men once too proud to believe.</p><p>Faith, laughter, and the scent of bread fill the air in this hilarious and heartwarming historical novel where miracles aren't only found in Scripture - they're baked fresh daily.</p><p><b>They Lacked Common Sense</b> is a story for every woman who's ever been told her dream was too big, too bold, or too impossible. It's for the believer who's lost everything only to discover that God restores in ways that defy logic and rewrite destiny.</p><p>Come taste the laughter, the loss, the love - and the loaves.<br>Because sometimes what the world calls foolish, Heaven calls <i>favor.</i></p><p><i>"For the foolishness of God is wiser than men."</i> - <b>1 Corinthians 1:25</b> </p><p> </p>
