You may be asking, "Why?"

Why am I doing a food blog?
I am doing this for my kid sis, Molly. She stops by my house during her breaks at school and eats my food and naps on my couch and told me I should. She is the type that enjoys a good meal as long as someone else makes it for her...she's a funny girl! She said she wants my mom to make some of my recipes (as if my mom needs help in the kitchen...she's my inspiration after all) and when I told my mom that she said, "Yeah or MOLLY could make it!" Now that's something I would like to see :) I'm just grateful for a kid sis that comes by and eats my leftovers and raves about it like it's something worth while.

Why is the address/title of the blog the Barefoot Contester?
I got the name from my adorable, lovable, hilarious little niece Abby. She is always offering up pearls of little kid wisdom such as the name of my blog. The story of the name, told by her mother:
The other day I baked some cookies & when Abby finished eating one she said "Oh mom, that was so tender!" I thought that it was a funny thing for her to say, as I never use the word "tender." I asked her who taught it to her & she said "the barefoot contester."


So there you have it! I hope you all enjoy my little food blog.
