How did this happen? I was on a really classic business track. When we got married, we had four kids right away so then I had the gift of becoming a stay-at-home mom to a pretty big family. So to become a stay-at-home mom to four babies in diapers was a huge switch.
Why did you want to be part of a reality television competition and what were your expectations or reservations? And I really saw it as a job interview.
I saw it as a piece in the bigger puzzle that is our family, and my mission statement and what I want to do on this earth before I leave it. Food Network Star for me was fantastic. It was great schooling, it was interesting, it was challenging, it was demanding; all the things that reminded me of going to business school. I like to work hard. Sure, is it great that I won?
But the experience would not have been less great, had I not. How do you define that or what do you think is your calling? It sort of started when our kids were young and babysitters were so expensive. We would just jot down; What are we about as a couple? What are we about as a family? What am I about as a human being?

Sure, could we use TV as a means to an end? I think our circumstances are sort of props to get us there. Risen Magazine: Faith is an important part of your life. When did you become a Christian and what does that mean to you and the way you raise your family? I grew up with a general sense of faith. I went to a Christian junior high, I went to Christian camp, I went to church, but I think Christianity and my faith were more of academic exercises through my teenage years. When I was twenty, my mom died by suicide.
My parents got divorced when I was just a couple months old so that left me without any parents. So that put me into a little bit of a faith crisis. My faith shifted from this automatic, academic, acceptance of Christianity, to really questioning and probing where I stood on everything and what my personal relationship [with Christ] was.
