Newsy Tuesday: These three ladies are making my Thanksgiving

Nov 6, 2018 | Holidays

I’m planning my Thanksgiving menu and since I am working more hours this year, I know that I won’t have as much time to cook.  So big news — I’ve hired out my sides and pies!  This is big because not only do I love to cook, but I love my...

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 PIZZA and I send you my easy pizza dough recipe. It takes just an hour to rise and can be refrigerated for up to three days.

Set out a variety of toppings and let guests make their own pizzas. You can bake them in your oven. We love our @fontanaforniusa outdoor pizza oven. It`s been so fun to have in our outdoor kitchen.

What`s your favorite pizza toppings? Mine is candied jalapeño, Italian sausage, basil and cheese!

Comment BAKED BEAN, and I`ll send you my recipe for THE BEST beans you`ll ever serve to your guests.

I`ve been making these beans for years, and Mr. Twist loves them. They feature three different beans, Molasses, brown sugar, bacon, onions, spices, and BBQ sauce.

They pair perfectly with burgers, bbq, and grilled meats. I can`t wait to share my recipe with you! Check your DM for the recipe.

🌸Comment SIMMER for two recipes - one for spring and one for fall - that I`ll send to your DM.🌸

Simmer pots are a fun and easy way to freshen your home using citrus and herbs from your garden - like rosemary, thyme, mint, and lavender. Just add to water and keep it on a low simmer. I especially like to do this on the day I am planning a dinner with friends.

Important: Never ever leave your simmer pot unattended or leave the cooktop on when you leave the house. Always check your water level and add more as you need to. Keep out of reach from pets and children as the water is extremely hot
