Growing up in New Mexico, Emily was inspired to be a great cook by all the delicious New Mexican food (and chile!) that was a part of her life. After selling a cake for $135 at a cake auction, she was inspired to share her delicious New Mexican recipes along with other country recipes and desserts on her blog, The Goldilocks Kitchen, and in her cookbooks. Emily is a scholar of multiple culinary arts as well as fine arts and continues to hone her skills today. When she's not frying perfectly puffy golden sopapillas or hot-air ballooning, she is keeping up with her faith and family in the Albuquerque metro area.
