About Lauren

Welcome! My name is Lauren Toppe Thomas. I have lived in The Woodlands, Tx for over 20 years. I have been married to my husband, Isaac, since 2016. We have two beautiful babies. My son, Cooper, is 4 and daughter, Collins is 1.

Cooper was conceived through IVF and Collins is our miracle baby! I am a huge advocate for fertility education and treatment.

I attended Texas A&M University, Gig ‘Em! And graduated in 2013. I work full time in Medical Device Sales.

My greatest passion is food! I love cooking, exploring new restaurants in Houston, and trying lots of different cuisines. I went alcohol free in October of 2023 and have found a new passion for discovering and sharing non alcoholic beverage alternatives and mocktail recipes.

Come along with me for easy recipes, delicious mocktails and everyday lifestyle chats!
