About Me

Why "Barefoot Kentucky Mama"? Because I am one. I have six kids, spend a lot of my time in the kitchen, and I'm barefoot whenever possible. My Catholic faith is always a work in progress, and I pray for guidance every day. I've been married to Nathaniel, my amazing husband, since 2002. I have a dog, chickens, and a big garden. I try to keep things green as much as I can, but I'm still a work in progress. I mostly cook from scratch healthy things, but again, I'm working on it, and I do believe in having desserts every now and then. (I just made whole wheat sourdough rolls...and chocolate chip cookies.) I love to read, write, cook, be outdoors, and sew. I'm passionate about adoption, and one of my kids was adopted from an orphanage in Bulgaria, and two from foster care. I live in a small town in Kentucky. I like small towns. I've lived in several in Kentucky, and in Indiana (where I'm from originally), and one in Texas (which was way too far from home). I love my family, both immediate and extended. I have been very blessed!
