The Five Best Houseplants and a Spotify Plant Playlist
Houseplants are nothing new but have you noticed a resurgence in their popularity on social media? American gardeners spent a record $52.3 billion on lawn and garden retail sales last year, according to the 2019Â National Gardening Survey. A quarter of that spending...
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.

Behind this closet door are three generations and 40 years of heirlooms.
Saving the good china for someday is like saving the little red box of raisins from Halloween. You keep waiting for the right moment, and then years go by.
China does not make memories sitting in bubble wrap on a high shelf. Life is happening right now on ordinary weekdays, so put your sandwich on the vintage gold-rimmed plate.
Are your wedding dishes packed in bubble wrap, or do you actually use them?

Last week during a Cottage Coaching session a woman told me she has put off inviting people over for nine months because her kitchen felt too dated and her schedule felt too full.
Her new plan - throw out the dinner party entirely.
We built her a simple, low-stress rhythm starting with morning porch coffee and bakery bread. Zero hot pots. Zero frantic stove timing. Just 60 minutes of real connection with people she loves.
Hospitality was never meant to be a test of endurance. It is simply creating space at your table.
If you are ready to stop talking yourself out of having people over, let us build your personal hosting rhythm together.

Derek Thompson wrote an article recently titled "The Death of the American Host," highlighting a quiet cultural shift. In 1975, 42% of Americans had friends over to their homes at least once a month. Today, that number has collapsed to just 12%, and the share of people who never host has tripled.
We still love our friends and crave connection as deeply as ever. Somewhere along the way, though, we began treating our living rooms like showrooms and gathering like a high-stakes performance. When having people over came to mean a Pinterest board party and multi-course perfection, we quietly locked our own doors from the inside.
In 40 years of opening my home, I have learned what guests actually carry with them. They remember your laughter, a warm welcome at the door, and the ease of being folded into an ordinary evening.
Real hospitality is simply opening the door and letting someone belong.
