The Healing Power of Exercise During Menopause
If you follow me on social media you saw a recent post of me in my swimming pool sporting a purple ala Doris Day swim cap hinting that I am celebrating a milestone. Well, that milestone is I just finished my first year of menopause. Woo hoo! It’s hard to believe...
Mediterranean Grilled Chicken Salad
Eating meals outdoors always seems to lift my mood and the weather has been so nice dinner alfresco. I love the smell of meat cooking on the grill while sipping a good glass of wine. I’m sharing a recipe I found on Pinterest for Grilled Lemon Herb...
Finding Your Fit – Get Creative With your Fitness Routine
I had just started getting into my groove of an exercise routine that was working for me. I set a minimum of three days a week of exercise with the goal of five days for the win. I learned that my best way to achieve this is to take my gear with me to work, change at...
The Healthy Way to Start the Day – From Ritual
This article, from Ritual, is too good to not share with you – word for word. Extolling the virtues of a nutritious breakfast? We know—groundbreaking. But even if you don’t need to see yet another study that measures the influence of “the most...
Curating Your Best Self – Being Brave
I had a Mother moment yesterday where I truly felt like I rocked at womanhood. Miss Bee called me in frantic tears. She had a job interview and her dad had taken the car to run an errand without thinking she was going to need it. “My interview is in 30...
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.

A beloved Fort Worth landmark since the early 1920s, @pariscoffeeshopftw Paris Coffee Shop has served generations of Fort Worthians over the past century. My daddy`s business was right around the corner and I remember going to have lunch with him way back in the day when he knew the original owner, Vic Paris.
The Coffee Shop changed ownership and underwent a thorough restoration with a respect to the past and an authentic period look to honor the café’s heritage.
It`s a great place to meet friends for breakfast or lunch.

Hair is the first thing we notice about people, and for many women it is the first barrier to feeling better about aging.
Woman founded and owned - Better Not Younger - is the first brand designed specifically to address the needs of hair that`s seen a decade (or five) for women who believe beauty is not defined by age.
I love their Lift Me Up Hair Thickener and Hair Redemption Restorative Butter Masque. My hair feels soft, full and frizz free.
Link in my bio to learn more about @betternotyounger or comment HAIR and I`ll send you the link to shop all their products!

Thoughts? Something my mother used to tell me. I`d love to hear your flops or success stories on this subject. 👇
While I didn`t do it for a dinner party, I did make overnight crockpot oatmeal for Mr. Twist and Phoebe. They took one bite and went straight to Whataburger.🤣

Secret tip use mayonnaise! Spread on your bread instead of butter and you get a delicious, crispy crust on your grilled cheese.
And we`ve been LOVING our @wildgrainbox monthly deliveries filled with bread, pasta, croissants and biscuits. Their Rosemary Sourdough made a beautiful grilled cheese.
Now are you team @hellmannsmayonnaise or @dukes_mayonnaise? Tell me below👇👇.

Happy Sunday! The flowers @lemargotfrench are stunning. Nothing elevates your mood more than a room filled with flowers. Right?

Chicken Taco Soup - Friday Food! My best soup recipe. So easy you`ll make this all fall and winter long. Comment below what recipes you`d like to see me make for inspiration.👇👇
Pro tip: We grill whole chickens on the weekend and de-bone them, store in zip lock bags in the freezer for weeknight meals. Two hens from Costco is about $14. Big savings.
RECIPE:
3 cups cooked shredded chicken
1 diced onion
2 cans diced tomatoes
1 can water
1 can cream corn
1 can red kidney beans (drained and rinsed)
1 can black beans (drained and rinsed)
1 envelope Ranch seasoning
1/4 cup Taco seasoning
Sautee onion in 1 tsp olive oil. Add remaining ingredients. Let it come to a boil then turn heat to low and simmer for about 30 minutes.
Makes great leftovers. Be sure to SAVE for later!

Jury Duty Outfit! I don`t know why but every two years, like clockwork, I receive a summons. So, I thought I`d let YOU vote for what I should wear. Tell me below👇👇
Something respectful of the court but is comfortable and makes me blend😅.
Have you ever been selected to serve on a jury? I`m never picked. I just spend the entire day waiting....

Which fall table setting do you like best? Be sure to scroll to the end for a surprise!
1. My mother`s Johnson Brothers Friendly Village
2. My mother`s wedding china
3. A mix of my everyday China and cobalt blue vintage dishes
4. Franciscan Rose with vintage pink and amber glassware.
Surprise touch - I used a vintage bakelite initial "M" brooch to embellish the napkin! Good things to look for while visiting estate sales.
I love setting the table. Nothing has to match. As long as you love it that`s what matters. #tablescapetuesday

Every southern bride needs a monogram! These custom cache pots from @southernhospitalityco are the perfect gift really for any occasion but especially as a wedding or baby shower gift. Look at the details. I especially love the ball feet.

Retrouve-moi au margot! We had a fabulous birthday lunch at the exquisite @lemargotfrench. Newly opened le Margot is curated by Chef Felipe Armenta and Michelin Star Chef Graham Elliot featuring the diversity of French cuisine while sourcing local and seasonal ingredients.
You`d never guess le Margot resides in the former Corner Bakery on Hulen. The decor, the flowers, the wallpaper in the ladies powder room WOW! And I loved the nod to the Julia-esk French copper decor in the kitchen area.
Open for lunch and dinner, weekend brunch and daily happy hour! Oui oui! Thank you @catherinewhite.art for treating me.

What are you committing to this month? My September goals -
~ Utilizing my journaling tools including a daily plan worksheet. I love checking off my to-dos and breaking down what I need to do in small tasks helps me feel less overwhelmed.
~ Looking ahead to how I want the holidays to look and feel
~ Weekly meal planning to help reduce food waste.
What are some of your commitments this month? I`d love to know!👇👇 You might inspire me!😁
My planning tools are from @breathing.room.home collaboration with @sugarpaperla. I treated myself to their collection last January.

Deck the fall y`all! If we all decorate I`m convinced cooler temps will come!🍁
Nothing new to the scene this year because I`m smitten with the dried botanical I found @traderjoes a few seasons ago. Pomegranates, oranges and wheat mixed in with eucalyptus with blue and white.
Mr. Binx enjoys lounging whilst I find my bliss puttering around my home. Have a beautiful weekend.

Comment "Salad" and I`ll send you the link for New Fashioned Two Bean Salad from this month`s @southernlivingmag. It is so delicious and summery. The buttermilk herb dressing is perfect for dipping, too.

Pantry Before & After! I completed my periodic cleanout of the pantry.
My process is the same as my clothing closet - take everything out, check for expired dates and return items in their proper bins. I love using @thecontainerstore multi purpose bins because the take up little space on your shelves.
I use jars for dry goods and lazy Susan`s for bottles.
Comment PANTRY for a link to my favorite pantry organizing supplies.

Want to sit with me? I love displaying open coffee table books. An open book is more inviting - just like people, don`t you think?
Flowers, a honey scented candle (thank you @tslang80) and my coffee. If you need me I`ll be in my Ladies Lounge!

Welcome Home! I`m excited to kick off my house tour with you - starting first with my Ladies Lounge!
I took what would typically be a formal dining space and turned it into a comfortable lounge for my cookbook library. It`s perfect for visiting with friends, reading, displaying my cake pedestals and china or sipping my morning coffee.
The large crystal rose bowl was an estate sale find from @ltolestatesales. I love filling it with fresh flowers so it`s the first thing I see when I walk in the door.
What do you see in the video that you like? Share below👇👇.
Stay tuned for more home tour fun.

Hot Hairdo Day! Watching hair tutorials is a great way to change up your hairstyle and look fresh for the day.
I knew there was no way I`d wear my hair down today in 110 degree heat so I looked at my saved reels from @everydayscrunchie for an easy low bun with a modern twist.
How do you like to wear your hair in the summer heat🔥? Share below👇👇

Try these two tricks for pumpkin bread. Spray your pan with non-stick spray and sprinkle with cinnamon & sugar instead of flour. Then add a cup of dark & milk chocolate chips. You`ll get a beautiful sugar crust with melted chocolate!
It`s never too soon for pumpkin bread - we need a little fall, right? Save for later!

I love finding joy in simple moments. From the first cup of coffee to start my day stirred with an heirloom silver spoon, to trying out a dinner recipe from a new cookbook while I sip a glass of wine, to curling up at night with a good book and herbal tea in a china teacup.
Follow my journey to transform the ordinary day into something memorable.

One of my favorite color combinations blue and orange 💙 + 🍊. You can make a vase from anything like this blue and white chinoiserie ginger jar. Flowers are @traderjoes - IMO the best deal on premium quality floral.
Pro tip: Have a bloom that broke off - don`t discard instead float it in a bowl like I did with the Gerber daisy.🌼
What`s your favorite color combo? Tell me below! 👇👇

French Toast Casserole! My daughter requests this for every holiday breakfast - Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year`s Day. You can divide into two pans and take one to a friend.
Save this for the recipe below 👇
FOR THE FRENCH TOAST:
1 loaf crusty sourdough or French bread (After making this several times, an entire loaf of bread is more than you want, maybe just use 3/4 of the loaf)
8 whole eggs
2 c. whole milk
1/2 c. heavy whipping cream
3/4 c. sugar
2 tbsp. vanilla extract
FOR THE TOPPING:
1/2 c. all-purpose flour
1/2 c. firmly-packed brown sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. salt
1 pinch nutmeg (optional)
1 stick cold butter, cut into pieces
Fresh fruit (optional)
Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking pan with butter. Tear bread into chunks (or cut into
cubes) and evenly distribute in the pan.
In a medium-sized bowl, mix together eggs, milk, cream, sugar, and vanilla. Pour
evenly over the bread. Cover tightly and store in the fridge for several hours or
overnight.
In a separate bowl, mix flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add nutmeg if
desired. Add butter pieces and cut them into the dry mixture until the mixture
resembles fine pebbles. Store in a Ziploc in the fridge.
When you’re ready to bake the casserole, preheat the oven to 350° F. Remove
the casserole from the fridge and sprinkle the crumb mixture over the top. (If you’re
using fruit, sprinkle on before the crumb mixture.) Bake for 45 minutes for a
softer, more bread pudding texture. Bake 1 hour or more for a firmer, less liquid
texture.
Scoop out individual portions. Top with butter and drizzle with maple syrup.
