All things taste better when made with love. Nomnivorous is the documentation of food made with love from my kitchen to yours.
Who are you?
Oh hi there, nice to meet you too. Here’s a few quick facts:
- My name is Emily.
- I’m in my mid twenties.
- I live in Brooklyn.
- I work in midtown Manhattan
- I’m an apparel designer.
- I spent my first twenty or so years living in North Carolina.
- Food obsession is in my genes. My father has cooked for a living for as long as I can remember.
- Food competition is something I can’t stop doing now that I’ve started. Addicted might be the word.
What should I expect to see on this blog?
Well, I’m a baker, cook, I eat out at dives and fancy schmancy places, but I’m not a restaurant reviewer. I love to travel and tend to plan trips around where I’m going to eat. Also, the following things may or may not show up on the blog. A few things I love:
- Salty-sweet desserts
- BRUNCH!
- Brussels sprouts (roasted, please)
- Bacon (to counteract the greens)
- Vanilla beans
- Kettle cooked potato chips
- Bourbon. Yes please.
- Spicy tuna rolls
- Warm bread from the oven with butter.
- Vinho verde
Oh, and how do you pronounce it?
nom·niv·o·rous \näm-ˈni-və-rəs\
So what does Nomnivorous actually mean?
I’m an omnivore, and pretty hardcore about trying all kinds of food given the chance. I also have soft spot for LOLcats, and nom has become a word I’m attached to Code for “Oh this is good, can’t stop eating it!” I hope everything I bring you here makes you want to nom the screen.



Hi Emily!
You and I met this morning at the Bake Sale table. I stopped by with my husband and boys to drop off some goods and buy a few, too (had such a hard time deciding what to get — everything was soooo good!). Thank you so much for volunteering, helping, and serving with such warmth and friendliness!
It was great to meet you!

What a fab about page emily! Really lovely!
Nom. I like.
Great to find some more foodie inspiration!
I agree with the above comment….neat about page! Makes me want to re-write mine
It’s nice to meet you. Stopped by through the SRC in regards to the PB cookies.
I’m a new member as of this weekend….and can’t wait to get my assignment for September! Yay!!
Ooh forgot to ask which area of NC? I moved from DC/MD to Winston-Salem, NC when I was 10. Moved away at 19, but still have family and friends there. I’ve been in South Florida since 1993.
Welcome to the SRC! Born and raised in Greensboro, went to school in Raleigh. So right near you!
I so plan my trips around where I’m going to eat too!
Bacon to counter act the greens, huh?
Have you had the brussels sprouts at the Spotted Pig yet? If so…good?
I’m dying to try them! Are they nom?
you’re so cute that the word cute itself has to morph into something cuter, thus Cutie Patootie was born!
So happy for you, former roomie and BFF. You’ve done so many things to be proud of. You’ve done some amazing things here!
Woohoo! Didn’t know you had a blog! I kept repinning all of your nommin recipes not knowing you were the one who developed the recipes. You probably don’t remember me from college, but I remember you (not a stalker, promise). Glad you’re doing well in NYC! I love visiting there. Maybe next time I come up you can recommend some great places to eat!
Hah, I remember you! Glad to see you found the blog, and have enjoyed my pins.
[...] Nomnivorous – Congratulations! [...]
