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.

Part two - if Netflix calls and wants me back I can show you ALL the dishes, and confessions, inside my hosting closet.
True story about the wedding shower. I haven`t stopped looking at China patterns since 1972. I finally did get the Lenox Autumn but not until recently when my bestie @catherinewhite.art and I found a set at @ltolestatesales and split it up so we could both enjoy it.
Stay with me for more dish obsession confessions! 🌟🌟🌟
Some people collect memories. I collect dishes. 🍽️
It started at seven years old. I went to my first bridal shower and knew right then the china pattern I would own one day - Lenox Autumn. I sat there watching women unwrap gravy boats and butter dishes and thought, "This is it. This is what I want my life to be."
It`s been downhill ever since. 40 years and the truth finally comes out.
Hidden boxes in the trunk sneaking them inside under darkness. My husband has stopped asking, "what`s in the box?" There’s no problem here.🤣
What would your Netflix documentary be about?👇👇

It was such a joy welcoming @homeworthy for a tour of my home. I had no idea the real star would be my sweet dog, Hazel.
Much of my story on Homeworthy spoke to how I`ve curated a story-filled home of art and collections inspired from my childhood and my mother`s legacy of hospitality.
But, something unexpected happened that day.
I adopted Hazel right after my mother died in 2013. She`s been my comfort and my shadow ever since. So when the cameras came, of course she insisted on being held the entire day - going room to room in my arms.
This tour isn`t just mine. It`s Hazel`s, too. I will cherish that day forever.
Comment HOME and I`ll send you the link to watch the episode on YouTube.
Thank you @houseofmbr for the beautiful hostess skirt I wore for the day.💛
P.S. Hazel loves fan mail.💌
