Let’s Bake Nostalgia – Sock it to Me Cake! Free Virtual Baking Class
In the 1960s-70s, my mother’s favorite cake to bake was the Sock it to Me cake. I honestly think she made it once a week. She served it to her girlfriends who came over for coffee and took it to church and ladies’ meetings. I recently came across her...
Easy Flower Arranging – Let’s Make a Centerpiece for Under $25
I try to treat myself to flowers at least twice a month. Trader Joe’s is my favorite place to shop because the prices are very reasonable, and the quality is high. I spent $25 on three bunches of flowers and then made two floral arrangements. There are three...
Lemony Bean Salad
My mother made the best bean salad. I haven’t found her written recipe, and this is one of many times I wish that I’d stopped long enough to watch her make it. I do remember it had kidney beans, white shoe peg corn, and French-style green beans mixed with...
Spring Tablescape Inspiration
When I put away Christmas, I immediately thought of how to style my dining table for later winter and early spring. I found a few things at Target and wanted to show you how I put them together for a Peter Rabbit garden-themed tablescape. I already had the basket tray...
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.

Part two - if Netflix calls and wants me back I can show you ALL the dishes, and confessions, inside my hosting closet.
True story about the wedding shower. I haven`t stopped looking at China patterns since 1972. I finally did get the Lenox Autumn but not until recently when my bestie @catherinewhite.art and I found a set at @ltolestatesales and split it up so we could both enjoy it.
Stay with me for more dish obsession confessions! 🌟🌟🌟
Some people collect memories. I collect dishes. 🍽️
It started at seven years old. I went to my first bridal shower and knew right then the china pattern I would own one day - Lenox Autumn. I sat there watching women unwrap gravy boats and butter dishes and thought, "This is it. This is what I want my life to be."
It`s been downhill ever since. 40 years and the truth finally comes out.
Hidden boxes in the trunk sneaking them inside under darkness. My husband has stopped asking, "what`s in the box?" There’s no problem here.🤣
What would your Netflix documentary be about?👇👇
Disclaimer: No antique dealers were harmed in the making of this reel. The restraining order is fictional. The obsession is very real. ☺️🤔🤫
