I like a gooey cookie.
I was an A student and I liked creative writing.
I finished high school, moved to Nashville for college, and set out to break into the music business. Every night when I called home with news of my experiences, my mom and dad would encourage me to keep taking those small steps.
I'm like it's - it's like taking out whatever you have in your fridge and putting it in a bowl and eating it.
I don't need to be 19 years old or starve myself for some weight or turn men's heads down that road. And thank God I finally know that.
I always want to sing, but I don't always want to be trying to have No. 1 records. I don't think you can do it forever. I don't know what the time span of that is going to be. I want to sing because I want to sing.
My upbringing did not create a healthy affection for confrontation. I'd love it if everyone always got along, and nothing ever got tense.
For me, cooking is very connected to my family and friends.
Standing behind a kitchen counter telling people about what ingredients to put in a pot didn't feel right.
People who truly love to sing have to do it all the time.
I don't interest myself that much.
It's for balance, if you want to do that. But the truth is that we all know how we're supposed to eat. And so if you have fried chicken and mashed potatoes and white gravy, then the next day you have, like a grape and you're totally evened out and you're good.
