Frame Your Thanks
Nov 2, 2012 | (I Did This Myself), Holidays
Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. I love the food (everytime I go to Luby’s I eat turkey and dressing). I love the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade. I love it when it’s cold outside, but this year if it’s nice we might sit on...

Returned Sunday from a restful time in Ruidoso where the weather was cool and the livin’ was easy. Woke up Monday morning for my first day back at work…to a stomach bug. Not so good times the last few days, but I was due for a good bug as I...
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.

This week, don`t worry so much about impressing your guests. Instead, ask yourself one simple question:
How can I help someone leave a little lighter than they came?
Your guests feel lighter not because the meal was elaborate. Not because your house looked perfect. Not because the table was set with heirloom china.
But because they felt seen. They laughed. They exhaled. They were served. They remembered what it feels like to belong.
The greatest gift we can offer isn`t a flawless home—it`s a safe place where people can set down the weight they`ve been carrying, even if it`s only for an evening.
I have a feeling they`ll remember that long after they`ve forgotten what was served for dinner.
❤️ I`d love to hear from you. Has someone ever made you feel lighter just by welcoming you into their home?
Hi! 👋 I`m Melissa and I love a good wine cooler - how about you?
Remember the summers of Fresca back in the day? Suntan oil (aka Crisco), Sun In spray that turned our hair orange, and lazy days sipping Fresca or TAB.
I mixed Fresca with a `22 Carignan California from my California Mixer box from @ingoodtastewines. The perfect 6 oz size just for my mini Fresca. Comment WINE and I`ll send you a $10 off promo code.
Join me for a fun summer of sips. Scroll through my reels for the wine cooler recipe. It`s pinned toward the top.
My cute Americana cups are from @catherinewhite.art.❤️🤍💙
