I haven’t done a pizza post in a while so of course when I saw this article in the New York Times I knew it was time to continue on my mission to make the perfect pizza at home. I also knew the article was worth a second look when someone from my beloved Pizzeria [...]

It feels like I’ve been away from Barefoot Bloggers for a minute! It’s nothing personal really, I just haven’t been cooking as much as I usually do. I’ve been out of town the past few weekends and I’ve generally just been lazy in life. ::le sigh:: But I’m back and better than ever in so [...]

When starting this blog I had the greatest intentions of doing all sorts of restaurant reviews but that never really panned out. Mostly because I haven’t been eating anywhere THAT thrilling and also because when I do go out I tend to visit the same spots over and over again. But not tonight! Tonight I [...]
