Cinnamon Toasted Pumpkin Bread – Semi Homemade
I associate fall with baking, especially pumpkin-flavored treats. Even though it's still over 100 degrees here in North Texas, I am not letting the weather stop me from dipping my toe into fall. I love to load up my cart of seasonal flavors at Trader Joe's. I have...

Heirloom Recipe – Julia’s Vermicelli Pasta Salad

Welcome to my five-part series featuring easy appetizers your guests will love. Because having people over doesn’t have to mean spending hours in the kitchen, I’m sharing simple, delicious recipes that make entertaining feel a little easier and a lot more enjoyable....
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 PLAYBOOK and I`ll send you this week`s episode of The Hostess Journal on YouTube where I meet you in my kitchen for a chat and my FREE Thanksgiving Playbook.
In this week`s Hostess Journal, I share three hosting tips that save my sanity:
1. Pick one recipe you can make with your eyes closed. Everything else on the table can be assembled, picked up, or warmed through.
2. Hand the early arrival a job with the drinks. The first friend who walks into the kitchen gets to be the guest mixologist. It puts them right at ease and gives them a role beside you.
3. Why you need my FREE Thanksgiving Playbook and how to get it.
Host with intention, not perfection.

👇👇Save the recipe below for Midnight Margaritas - perfect for Spooky Season 👻🧙♀️🧹 and a Practical Magic movie night.
The first guest who walks through the front door gets put in charge of the bar.
When someone arrives early to a party, standing around in the kitchen can feel awkward. Instead of me playing bartender all night, I hand the recipe and teach them how to make the welcome cocktail.
It breaks the ice immediately, gives them a purpose, and frees me up to greet everyone else.
Midnight Margarita recipe:
Rim a glass with a lime, then dip the rim into black sugar (I found it at @totalwine).
In a cocktail shaker filled with ice add
2 oz tequila
1 oz Cointreau
1 oz fresh lime juice
1/2 oz agave syrup
1/2 oz blackberry liquer
Shake for one minute, strain over fresh ice. Garnish with a lime slice. Cheers!
P.S. my adorable top is from @tuliptopco

I stood in a resale shop staring at this tray. I couldn`t put it down. But it was tarnished. I thought when would I use it and it`s so ugly.
Well. Look at her now. Happily serving my mini cokes on an ordinary Thursday.
