Jennifer Lawrence’s Imaginary Cooking Show is simply the most charming thing you’ll come across. Among the many relatable and down-to-earth celebrity mothers, Jennifer has captured my heart. I can’t help but think that if we ever crossed paths, we would instantly become best friends, sharing laughs over the clutter in our purses and complaining about the never-ending demands of managing our kids’ Girl Scout cookie sales. And now, my admiration for her has just deepened because she’s launched her own cooking show, and it’s utterly delightful.
For several months, Lawrence has been releasing “episodes” of her Imaginary Cooking Show on her Facebook page. So far, there are four episodes, and I honestly wish they would release daily installments. Just watch, and you’ll understand why. She even kissed her Ina Garten cookbook—how adorable is that?
Throughout the episodes, she shares the most endearing cooking tips, like how to fill a measuring cup with water, advising, “not too hot, not too cold, just right.” Seriously, what is it about her that is so charming? I feel like her honey white bread shaped like little people is a must-have in my life.
Episode Highlights
In the second episode, she whips up Huckleberry English Muffins, and it’s as precious as it sounds. She’s in owl pajamas and reading glasses, which is simply too cute to handle. She even times the dough chilling process as “two kids’ bedtimes,” which is incredibly relatable. It feels like having a close friend in your kitchen. At the end, she blows a kiss to the muffins, saying she wants to eat one but is “doing a movie” and trying to avoid carbs. No worries, Jennifer (we’re on nickname terms now), I’ll enjoy three in your honor.
In her third episode, she makes her third attempt at homemade bagels, setting up the dough the night before while wearing plaid pajamas embroidered with “Mom.” The results? Spoiler alert: she absolutely nails it. “What they lack in puffiness, they make up for in character,” she remarks between bites. (I think the carb restriction is officially over—thank goodness!)
The latest episode features her take on a nut-free granola bar recipe because, of course, she has one for busy moms. Have you ever seen someone so genuinely happy while making nut-free granola bars? I’m compiling reasons why she should be my best friend—hopefully, that’s not too weird?
She finishes the recipe by drizzling chocolate over the bars, stating, “I’m not a pretty baker,” but I wholeheartedly disagree—she’s a radiant gem in the kitchen. It’s unclear why she labels this an “imaginary” cooking show since she clearly possesses real cooking skills and is the most approachable kitchen guide imaginable. With her relatable charm and authenticity, she makes every episode feel like a fun hangout with a friend.
Be sure to catch episode five; I can hardly wait!
