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?👇👇
