What’s your favorite Christmas memory?
My favorite Christmas memory is of Christmas Eve - when all of my family gets together and all the cousins would pick their favorite song to sing…kinda like our own version of a talent show!
What’s your idea of a good Christmas Dinner?
My favorite foods are southern cooked staples. I love mashed potatoes, corn, green bean casserole, turkey - all the good stuff. But, I also love my family’s spin on Christmas because we are Italian. My mom always makes her famous Lasagna and my dad makes an Italian classic, Bagna Cauda, (a really yummy dip served with cabbage and bread).
Do you have a favorite Christmas album?
I would say it would have to be Mariah Carey’s “Merry Christmas.”
Do you have any favorite traditions of favorite movies for the holiday season? One of my all-time favorite movies during the holiday season would be The Polar Express - it brings me so much joy. A favorite tradition would have to be decorating the Christmas tree with my mom and her letting me hang all my favorite ornaments.
What’s been your favorite album of 2019?
My favorite would have to be Miranda Lambert’s “Wildcard.”
What are your hopes for 2020? Any exciting plans?
My hopes and prayers for 2020 is for my music to continue to grow and reach new individuals. I pray for the world to be a safer and kinder place in 2020 and for everyone to be nice to one another. I hope to do my part and continue to spread good vibes and good times with my music!
The holiday season brings the best parties and time together with friends and family. What is your signature cocktail recipe that you will be drinking/serving?
My signature cocktail this season will be a “Hot Bourbon Cider” because, of course, I’m a bourbon lover. All the recipe takes is Makers Mark Bourbon, Apple Cider, Cinnamon Sticks, Allspice Berries and Cloves. This is so tasty for all you Bourbon lovers.
