Taylor Swift opened up in an interview with Parade magazine about her writing process, her favorite holiday traditions, and privacy while maintaining a relatively normal life. In regards to the paparazzi watching her every move Taylor shared, “I don’t know necessarily how much privacy I’m entitled to, but I know I don’t get much of it. At the same time, I asked for this. I could be playing in a coffee house. I’d be happy doing that, [but] not as happy, probably. Knowing that people are going to hear the music I make is the most amazing feeling. Knowing that there are dudes waiting outside my house with cameras, hiding in the bushes, is a less awesome feeling.”

On a brighter note it seems that Taylor is able to enjoy the normal things like everyone else. Taylor explained, “I make raspberry jam. When I was younger we had a grape arbor, and my mom would go out and pick grapes and make grape jam in the sink—boil it, put it in jars, and give it away as gifts. So I started making raspberry jam, and it is so good. You can put it on anything; you can dip pretzels into it. I don’t mean to brag, but it’s so good you could just eat it with a spoon.”
