Songs, recipes, and whatever's growing in my garden.

Hi, I'm Lauren. I sing the theme for Leanne on Netflix and write songs you’ve heard in your favorite TV shows, movies, and for artists like Keb' Mo'.

Behind the scenes, I’m growing things in my garden that probably shouldn't survive, raising a son who knows how to say please and thank you, and I make a killer pork chop recipe (according to my husband).

I'm a girl's girl just trying to make my house feel like a home. Come on in.

This Season I’m Loving…

My favorite summer coffee mugs — I swear a beautiful cup just makes my morning coffee taste better.

My summer uniform on repeat.

A glass spray bottle with a black nozzle sitting on a pack of books on a wooden surface. A framed photo and a potted plant are in the background near a window with a view of green grass outside.

This delicate, beautiful water mister is giving me (and my indoor plants) life.

Things I Love and Actually Use

A dining room with a wooden table, beige upholstered chairs, and a sideboard with potted plants, framed photos, and books. Large windows with green foliage outside and purple curtains.
A pink chair with gold legs has a gray blanket, three books, and a cup of black coffee on it, with white flowers underneath.
