How to Organize Your Desk Drawers
Over the Christmas holidays, I tackled some organizing projects, and one of them was the desk space in our master bedroom. I’ve avoided it since 2013, the year Mother passed away. This space was her spot to write notes, play on the computer, and pay bills. I...

Organizing Kitchen Drawers
The easiest way to tackle organizing any space is to work on it in small segments. Use a calendar and write down a goal each week for an area of your home that hasn’t been tackled in a while. Last week my goal was to clean out my kitchen drawers. I immediately...
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.

I`m still thinking about last Saturday when Catherine White Art and I lead the NEW YEAR TRUE YOU Vision Board Workshop.
🌸We shared the negative messages we tell ourselves that hold us back from authenticity.
🌸We set goals and identified positive habits we want to incorporate in our daily routine.
🌸We named our "Word" of the year as our mantra.
🌸We heard important messages about rest and seeking moments of stillness.
🌸We took time for creative learning and thinking to design a unique vision board specific to our ideas and beliefs.
🌸We came together to find an accountability partner who will nurture and support our plans.
Melinda Gates said, "Empowering women is the best investment in humanity." If your womens group is interested in booking a workshop, send us a DM. We`d love to work with you!
❤️SAVE FOR LATER❤️ My Bestie Julie is a phenomenal baker, but her mother Evelyn`s recipe for Snickerdoodles is hands-down the best.
Coated in cinnamon sugar, the cookies are light, crispy, and not too sweet. Your home will snell like the Keebler Elves Tree!
I made mine smaller so I could package them for gifting. It makes about four dozen cookies. Bake and freeze for later.
Be sure to SAVE the recipe below for later❤️
Evelyn`s Snickerdoodles
1 cup soft shortening
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
Mix until light and creamy
Combine 2 3/4 cups flour, sifted, with 2 tsp cream of tarter, 1 tsp baking soda, and 1/2 tsp salt. Mix well. Stir into batter. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about an hour.
Roll into walnut size balls, then roll in a mixture of 2 TBL sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet (I used parchment paper) and bake at 350 for about 10 minutes. You just want them jusr slightly golden around the edges. The puff up during baking but flatten out after cooling.
XOXO - Mrs. Twist
