Re: Is this Ruth Reider's Girl?
Congratulations to this young lady! I admire young folks with ambition and dreams. But more than that those with the perserveance and determination to make it a reality.
Obviously does not change the fact I think her mother is a heretic but still a great story of a young person living up to their potential and I know her mom must be proud of her.

LOL! Touche!  It's true that Jeff does what he loves, but he doesn't just "cook barbecue." He writes newsletters every week, contributes to a digital BBQ magazine, contributes the occasional article for other magazines/publications, maintains a website and a huge online forum, manages advertisers, answers hundreds of emails per week and takes and edits all his own photos, among other things. He only cooks on Tuesdays and holidays--and even that requires research and major preparation.
There all sorts of stressful components to owning your own business (such as doing your own bookkeeping, invoicing advertisers, etc.), although I totally agree that it's worth it if you can turn what you love doing into something profitable. In many ways it is definitely easier to work for someone else, turn in the required number of hours and then go home and leave it all at the office.

Even if she wears makeup, jewelry, and cuts her hair?

Why not? Is a parent to not be proud of a child's accomplishment in something even if in another area they fall short in their eyes?

You would like to think it would be that way; however, I have seen a situation where a parent pretty much disowned children because they "fell short" in the parent's eyes regarding "standards of holiness." Children that are dedicated to loving God and serving Him. It can be very sad. No pride in the children's accomplishments and only laments that the children have been deceived and are believing a lie - lost and going to hell.  Parents who state they are embarrassed by their children no longer following these "standards". Parents who are more concerned with what their peers think and say than their relationship with their children.

Re: Is this Ruth Reider's Girl?
That is sad, Sweet Pea.
Regarding Ruth, she is part of her daughter's business and appeared in a positive news story covering it, so I would assume it is safe to say she is proud of her daughter.

What makes you think she wears makeup, jewelry, and cuts her hair? Did I miss something in the pic / article?
