About Emily

How long have you been blogging?

I started blogging after my sophomore year of high school. I hurt my knee in high school. So I was looking for something to do that qualified as an extra curricular. It was actually my grandma who told me to start a food blog. It was the classic, “I think you would be so great at that” grandma response. I started blogging not long after that.

Do you work full time?

I have a full time career in accounting. It’s a weird combo. But I love my career! And I also love cooking!
