Vegetable Au Gratin
I found a delicious recipe from Buns in My Oven on Pinterest recently for a Summer Squash Gratin. By definition “au gratin” is a dish sprinkled with bread crumbs or cheese, or both and then browned. Mother used to make au gratin potatoes and scalloped...

Try it Tuesday: Crispy Garlic Butter Smashed Sweet Potatoes
This is a keeper recipe I just discovered from Cafe Delites for crispy garlic butter smashed sweet potatoes. There’s a little more effort into these than just baking sweet potatoes, but trust me they are so worth it! As Mr. Bee and I were eating them with our...
Cheese Vegetable Quiche
Trying to please a picky teen with my cooking lately has become a challenge. Especially since she has been exploring non-meat options. I had an excess quantity of eggs and thought a vegetable quiche might be a good option for dinner. I pulled out my cookbooks 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.

Breakfast with Santa is so last year. It`s time for Cocoa with Mrs. Claus!
I had so much fun styling this pink themed table with my vintage Franciscan Desert Rose china, colony crown thumb print glassware, @glitterville Santa mugs and @amyhowardhome pink check linens.
My philosophy is to host with intention, not perfection. How do you let go of perfectionism? Well, you give yourself permission to release old messages you`ve heard from others or things you`ve told yourself.
The best way to focus on intentionality is to PLAN! That`s why I created my Modern Host`s Guide to Thanksgiving. It has all the tools, tricks, and tips to help YOU be the best host you can. Because it`s ALL ABOUT RECEIVING help and support.
