I’m sharing Ann Voskamp’s December calendar printable. You can find this and other beautiful art, memory verses and stories at her webpage. Pin this to your refrigerator and make it a family activity to unwrap the season. Start with today: Tape a $1.00...
Glimpses of Heaven
When my daddy passed away five years ago, we gave our family the gift of Hospice care. We chose inpatient care because I wanted my mother to be a wife and partner to my dad, rather than a caregiver. This meant they could spend time together holding hands and loving...
Agape Meal: Faith, Hope and Community
Mr. Bee and I are in a small group at our church. We gather twice a month on Monday nights for fellowship and Bible study. It’s been a great way to meet new people and make new friends outside of our regular Sunday school class. We may have different beliefs,...
Happy Birthday Mother
Today, August 15, would have been my mother’s 89th birthday. She loved Jesus, strawberry cake, birds of all kinds, but especially cardinals. She faithfully fed Mockingbirds, the Texas state bird, every morning. They like mealy worms…and she kept a nice...
Since Mother Died: Two Things I Haven’t Done, and One Thing I Did
My mother passed away in 2013. It’s getting easier to not have her with me, and yet there are some days it seems like yesterday. Grief is like an unannounced guest…it shows up when it wants to, stays as long as it wants, makes a mess and then leaves. Only...
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.

Thank you, thank you for your love, kindness, and support this year. Every like, follow, and share means so much to me.
I love our Home with a Twist community, and I am thankful for what we`ve created together.
I wish you and your family a blessed holiday season full of unexpected graces and maybe a miracle or two.
I`m taking a break for the week to enjoy time with my family and celebrate the calmness of the new year ahead.
I hope wherever you are tonight, you get caught up in the magic of Christmas. Thank you for being part of my world.
You know those pins your mother gave you - WEAR THEM! I took one of my mother`s vintage starburst pins and created a cinched waist with my velvet jacket. It definitely elevates your look!
You can add pins to your handbag, a jean jacket, a scarf around your wrist, and like my friend Jen @stylewithnoregret, she decorated a tinsel tree with vintage brooches.
You will definitely make a statement at the party!
Comment CAKE and I`ll send you my recipe for Cranberry Christmas Cake, or visit my website www.homewithatwist.com.
I like to pour the batter into small 8x8 pans for easy gifting. Add a dusting of powdered sugar, a ribbon, and a tag, and you`ll deliver the perfect Christmas morning treat.
