Hello sweet friends,

Spring is peeking around the corner, and I can feel the stirrings of something new and wonderful in the air! The days are stretching just a little longer, the birds are singing a little louder, and the earth feels ready to bloom — and honestly, so do I.

There are so many exciting things ahead that I can hardly keep still! First up, I’ve been quietly (and lovingly) working on a brand-new website — a cozy little corner of the internet where we can gather, share stories,  and recipes in true LilyLouTay fashion.

But that’s not all…

My very first cookbook is coming this fall! It’s been a dream in the making, full of heart, heritage, and good food that brings people together. I can’t wait to share it with you.Thank you for being here — for your kindness, encouragement, and company. This season feels like the start of something special, and I’m so glad we’re in it together.

With love and big hugs,

About me

Meet Hannah

Hey ya'll! I'm Hannah Taylor aka “LilyLouTay” and I'm so happy you're here! I live in Georgia, right across the field where the creek bends back by the old stump row (IYKYK). 
I share our little lake house with my 3 kiddos, 3 puppies, 7 cats, a shit ton of chickens and my sexy James Taylor. I love this little life of mine y’all.

I also love jamming out to some good old tunes and shaking my groove thang in my most precious place of the house, my kitchen. I measure with my heart while cooking and I suggest you do the same. It’s time to make cooking fun again honeys! So grab your flour and tell Alexa to play our LilyLouTay kitchen playlist on Spotify. Make sure you blow me a flour kiss.
