In the Garden Happy Hour – Spicy Peach Margaritas

A Fun Way to Serve Ice Cream – in a Watermelon

One of my favorite desserts from my Mother was her Pink Lemonade Pie. My brother always requested it for his birthday in June. The pie recipe is easy to make and pairs perfectly with a homemade graham cracker crust. Once chilled, the pie travels well and easily...
Hospitality is in my DNA. I founded Home with a Twist, a daughter’s twist on her mother’s traditions, in memory of my mother to celebrate her life and the gifts she shared with me. Mother loved to celebrate life’s occasions – big and small.She taught me how to prepare fabulous food, entertain guests with style and design a traditional home with a pop of color and a splash of animal print. Share my fondness of blending Mother’s mid-century style with a modern spin.

🍑🍑 Comment PEACH, and I`ll send you the recipe for Spicy Peach Margaritas.
These are so good and take advantage of summer`s delicious seasonal peaches. The secret is the @tajinusa chile-lime seasoning on the rim.
We paired these with habanero mango smoked pork tenderloin, Cathy`s orange rice a la @cathywmcintosh, and grilled pineapple. The perfect summer supper!
I don`t think I will ever drink margaritas any other way!🍑🍑🍑🍑
Oh, and my vintage anchor necklace is from @ladybugvintage.

My adorable pantsuit is from @keepingupwith.thejoneses and reminds me of Marsha Brady.
✨ No filter needed — just the evening’s golden glow, dancing across seashells, vintage photos, and a flickering candle. I love how the light catches my latest art piece from @catherinewhite.art above the mantel.
In the rush of summer’s fun-filled days, we often forget to savor the gentle, quiet moments — the hush before twilight, the soft stories told in light.
This reel is a love letter to those slow, honeyed hours when time seems to pause and everything feels a little softer.
Let’s remember: summer isn’t only about adventures. It’s also about lingering, listening, and letting the glow sink in.
💛 Which golden hour moment will you savor this week? Tell me below.👇👇👇
Every woman deserves a place that`s hers alone — a soulful, story-filled retreat to sip, play, dream, and remember who she is beyond the to-do lists.
My Ladies` Lounge is where I let my imagination wander, where memories meet new moments, and where the soundtrack is always perfectly set to me time.
It`s a space filled with treasures like my mother`s secretary that still smells like it did when she wrote letters 50 years ago. Books that inspire me, puzzles to engage my mind and Barry Manilow to keep me company.
I can`t wait to share more with you from this dreamy, colorful corner of my world.
