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.

The doorbell is ringing in 15 minutes. Now what? 🍂
This is my little 15-Minute Reset for those moments when I want my home to feel welcoming without suddenly deciding I need to deep-clean the entire house.
🕯️ Light a fall-scented candle
🧽 Give the kitchen counters a quick wipe
🍂 Put out a fresh fall hand towel in the guest bath
🍎 Assemble the snack tray
🎶 Turn on my Porch Party playlist
That`s it.
I`m not trying to make my house perfect. I`m creating a feeling—cozy, cared for, and ready to welcome people in.
And when those 15 minutes are up? I stop.
Because the most important thing waiting behind that door isn`t a spotless house.
It`s me. ❤️

Behind 40 years of gathering, collecting, and inheriting, I have found that our cherished pieces lose something when we keep saving them for someday.
Silver can always be polished, and good china was made to be used and enjoyed. These pieces belong in our daily life, surrounded by conversation and the people we welcome into our home.
What cherished piece is tucked away in your cabinet waiting to be brought to the table? 🤍
This was such a fun way to reimagine the traditional cheese board. I shopped at @bjswholesale for supplies:
🧀 Cubed cheddar cheese
🧀 Individual brie bites
🍇 Grapes
🍓 Strawberries
Meats, crackers and pretzels.
I used washi tape for the "Shark"cuterie tags and bait bobbers for the top. Such a cute presentation.
Comment CHEESE and I`ll send you the link for the tags and supplies.
