Barefoot in the news again!
Barefoot in the Kitchen will be in the Queens Daily News tomorrow, Sunday, December 19th. In you live in the area, go out and get yo’self a copy!
Learn to do by making two.
Sometimes you just gotta bake.
Sometimes you crave something a little out of the ordinary.
Sometimes that means going outside of your comfort zone.
New recipes. Savory recipes. Considerably less sugar than you are used to baking with.
These things happen. Some people do it all the time. Weirdos.
But just when you think things couldn’t get anymore uncomfortable, you surprise...

A tearful goodbye...
Is there anything better than summer?
I am not talking a sweltering, concrete-jungle kind of summer where you sweat in the shower, on the subway, basically anywhere.
I am talking summer on the lake, with friends, a little summer ale and seasonal baked goods.
Summer 2010 was marked by more visits home to the Finger Lakes than I have had since moving to the city. And I enjoyed every single...
Cupcakes!
What happens at the bachelorette party stays at the bachelorette party.
Unless of course you have three of the most amazing cupcake recipes of all time. That I will give you. The rest, well…I am sworn to secrecy.
I recommend sharing these with lovely new family members, lots of giggling, and a few top secret bonding activities of your choice.
Many thanks to my dear friend Tettora...
A wedding tale of ever-elusive cinnamon rolls.
I must apologize. I have not been a very good blogger these past 3 weeks.
A good baker, yes. A good blogger, no.
But I have an amazing excuse…a wedding!
My big bro got married on September 18th and I was upstate planning. And stressing. And flower arranging. And family reunion-ing. And celebrating!
And of course, baking.
Baking for the wedding breakfast. Baking for the Bachelorette...

Good friends, good food.
Is there anything better than a dinner party with friends?
…How about a dinner party with some of your best friends and some of the best food you have eaten all summer?
And, what’s that? New recipes you say? Recipes that instantaneously become your new favorites?
Yes, please!
There was no special occasion for this dinner party. Just good friends who have not seen each other...
The time has come...

Welcome!
Welcome to Barefoot in the Kitchen!!
Barefoot grew out of a love of all things homemade, country recipes, and the joy of cooking with people I love.
I grew up on a Christmas tree farm in Upstate New York, equipped with 50 acres of beautiful countryside, a huge family garden, and a close knit community. My mother, Kate, taught my older brother and I to bake pies when we were still in...
