How to Make a Centerpiece Using Magnolia Market Paperwhites
A few springs ago I purchased five faux paperwhite bulbs from Magnolia Market. Real paperwhites are a fragrant winter-blooming bulb typically grown indoors. I liked the faux option because they would last me until spring when I change over my decor to Easter. And,...

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 PLAYBOOK and I`ll send you this week`s episode of The Hostess Journal on YouTube where I meet you in my kitchen for a chat and my FREE Thanksgiving Playbook.
In this week`s Hostess Journal, I share three hosting tips that save my sanity:
1. Pick one recipe you can make with your eyes closed. Everything else on the table can be assembled, picked up, or warmed through.
2. Hand the early arrival a job with the drinks. The first friend who walks into the kitchen gets to be the guest mixologist. It puts them right at ease and gives them a role beside you.
3. Why you need my FREE Thanksgiving Playbook and how to get it.
Host with intention, not perfection.

👇👇Save the recipe below for Midnight Margaritas - perfect for Spooky Season 👻🧙♀️🧹 and a Practical Magic movie night.
The first guest who walks through the front door gets put in charge of the bar.
When someone arrives early to a party, standing around in the kitchen can feel awkward. Instead of me playing bartender all night, I hand the recipe and teach them how to make the welcome cocktail.
It breaks the ice immediately, gives them a purpose, and frees me up to greet everyone else.
Midnight Margarita recipe:
Rim a glass with a lime, then dip the rim into black sugar (I found it at @totalwine).
In a cocktail shaker filled with ice add
2 oz tequila
1 oz Cointreau
1 oz fresh lime juice
1/2 oz agave syrup
1/2 oz blackberry liquer
Shake for one minute, strain over fresh ice. Garnish with a lime slice. Cheers!
P.S. my adorable top is from @tuliptopco

I stood in a resale shop staring at this tray. I couldn`t put it down. But it was tarnished. I thought when would I use it and it`s so ugly.
Well. Look at her now. Happily serving my mini cokes on an ordinary Thursday.
