Stop by 'A Frame of Mind' to visit with this month’s featured Author: Emily Eckert Massey. Emily's love for food began as a young child cooking with her mom, who was always creating unique and healthy dishes in Camden, Arkansas. Studying at the University of Arkansas, Emily received a B.S. in Dietetics. Instead of taking the typical career path of a dietitian, Emily decided to further her knowledge of food by attending Florida Culinary Institute where she received a double degree in International Pastry and Culinary Arts. Her passion for cooking led her to create a personal chef business, Simply Scrumptious, LLC. She operated Simply Scrumptious, LLC in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida before moving to their home in Fayetteville, Arkansas where she lives with her husband, Jeff, and daughter, Kate. Her goal is to create beautiful dishes and to teach people how to make healthy and delicious foods by using all their senses.
