I love bayou life.

I make a lot of soups, and I love stews. My mother's a big foodie. She went to culinary school in New Orleans and has an oyster-artichoke soup recipe that has no cream in it but it tastes so creamy.

You know, it's a really adult thing, for some people, to choose to not be with the one that you love.

They love putting me in the 'indie queen' box. I had some high standards in my 20s that I don't have anymore.

I find myself listening to Talk Talk on repeat while I'm doing gardening in upstate New York. Their music is so languid, and I just love his voice.

I care about being creative and expressing myself.
