Repaint your Patio Furniture
This time of the year is my favorite. The evenings are still cool despite the warmer days arriving. I love to sit outside on my patio. One of the smartest things Mr. Bee and I did recently was to take our existing wrought iron furniture and have it...Shop the grocery store for plants
Mr. Bee and I have really been working hard to get our garden spruced up for the growing season. This post will kick off a series of posts on the buzz in my garden. The grocery store doesn’t have to be just for milk and eggs — it can also be a...
Get to the Point
I love pointy-toed shoes. I added a few to my spring wardrobe from Ninewest. They are having a 30% off sale right now so you can scoop up some good deals. Plus, Ninewest makes good quality shoes that will hold up from season to season. The thing I...
Trisha told me to use mayonnaise
I am the target audience for commercials. I was driving in the car today listening to the radio and Trisha Yearwood came on with a new recipe using Hellmann’s mayonnaise in your burgers! Being that it’s week two of my cooking duty, I thought, “wow...
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 FAMILY and I`ll send you the link to submit your recipe.
Some of the most treasured recipes aren`t found in cookbooks—they`re tucked inside handwritten recipe cards, passed from one generation to the next, and seasoned with stories.
Today, I`m inviting you to share one of yours.
I`m creating a new series where I`ll step into my kitchen and prepare family recipes submitted by this wonderful community. But I don`t just want the recipe...I want the story behind it.
✨ Who shared it with you? ✨ When do you make it? ✨ Why does it still have a place at your table?
I`ll choose recipes to recreate, share your family`s story, and give you full credit when I feature it on my Instagram and Home with a Twist.
If you have a recipe that`s become part of your family`s legacy, I`d be honored to help preserve it.
I can`t wait to read your stories and bring them to life—one treasured recipe at a time.

Hi, I`m Melissa 👋
I`ve spent 40+ years gathering people around tables, and somewhere along the way I learned the secret: it was never about the china pattern or the perfect recipe. It was about making someone feel like they belonged at your table.
I mix Dollar Tree finds with my grandmother`s dishes. I use grocery store flowers and light a candle and call it done. I created a whole room in my house just for puzzles and cocktails and long phone calls with girlfriends.
If you`re the person who WANTS to host but keeps waiting until everything is perfect… pull up a chair. That`s exactly why I`m here.
I`m here to help you host with ease and confidence. Follow along for heirloom recipes, real hosting tips, and the occasional cocktail before dinner because… why not?
