French Onion Sourdough Focaccia

Oh my goodness, this one is a keeper!

I’ve been having so much fun experimenting with sourdough, and today I decided to combine two of my favorite things: French onion soup and homemade focaccia.

Imagine thick, pillowy focaccia topped with sweet, slowly caramelized onions, beautiful Gruyère cheese, fresh thyme, and a generous drizzle of olive oil. Baked until golden, bubbly, and absolutely irresistible.

The secret? Using my sourdough discard along with a little yeast gives this bread a wonderful texture without requiring an all-day fermentation.

The aroma coming from my kitchen was heavenly, and the finished bread was everything I hoped it would be.

I love that something as simple as flour, water, onions, and cheese can turn into something so extraordinary.

Would you like me to share the recipe?

Happy baking!

Having a fun day at HSN with my daughter selling incredible

10/11/2026

💚 Some things never go out of style… especially Tupperware!

Growing up, my grandmother always had the crispiest, most delicious celery ready for snacking, thanks to her trusty Tupperware celery keeper! My favorite treat? Ants on a Log! 🐜🥬 Celery filled with peanut butter and topped with raisins. Oh, the memories!

And here’s the best part… my sister STILL uses hers every single day! 💚

That’s what I love about Tupperware. It’s not just about keeping food fresh. It’s about the memories, the family traditions, and those wonderful pieces that become part of our lives for generations.

80 years of Tupperware! 🎉 More than food storage… it’s a little piece of our family history.

💚 Now I have a question for YOU! What’s your all-time favorite piece of Tupperware? Do you still have something your mother or grandmother used? I’d LOVE to hear your stories!

📺 And please join me TUESDAY on HSN for TWO Tupperware parties!

🎉 1 PM & 3 PM — Our Tupperware hours!

✨ Plus, catch me for special appearances at 7 AM & 5 PM!

We’ll be sharing some fabulous finds and incredible buys to take you through the rest of the year!

80 years of memories. 80 years of innovation. And still making life a little easier, one kitchen at a time! 💚

❤️ WHO REMEMBERS THESE? ❤️

And more importantly… WHO STILL HAS THEM? 😂

Oh, the memories!

The Tupperware parties. The pastel bowls. The salt and pepper shakers. The lettuce keeper. And that unmistakable POP when you sealed the lid!

But here’s what I love most…

For generations, Tupperware has done so much more than keep our food fresh.

It brought women together. It helped mothers build businesses, earn their own money, and create opportunities around their kitchen tables. And it became part of the memories we made with our families.

80 years of Tupperware. And what a legacy! ❤️

I’m so excited to be back on HSN this Tuesday, October 13, celebrating this iconic brand and sharing some wonderful new innovations, including beautiful glass food storage and holiday favorites!

📺 Join me at 7 AM, 11 AM, 1 PM, and during the 5 PM hour, Eastern!

But before we talk about what’s NEW, I want to celebrate what we LOVED.

❤️ Tell me: What was THE Tupperware item in your mother’s or grandmother’s kitchen that you will NEVER forget?

And even better… DO YOU STILL HAVE IT? 😂

I cannot wait to read your memories!

I wish I could be there

🥣 The bowls were colorful, but the real magic of a Tupperware party was hearing that famous seal snap shut.

Neighbors gathered in a living room or kitchen while a hostess demonstrated lightweight containers in soft pastel colors. Guests learned how to press the lid, lift one corner, and “burp” out the extra air before sealing leftovers inside.

Earl Tupper developed the innovative plastic containers in the late 1940s, but shoppers were slow to understand them on store shelves. Brownie Wise recognized that people needed to see the seal demonstrated, and in 1951 she became vice president of Tupperware Home Parties, helping turn home demonstrations into a national phenomenon.

For many women in 1950s America, these gatherings offered more than food storage. They created friendship, flexible income, sales experience, and a rare route into business leadership from the home.

A party ended with order forms, refreshments, conversation, and the hope of earning a hostess gift. Decades later, opening a cupboard and seeing those familiar bowls can bring the entire evening back.

Did you attend Tupperware parties, and which vintage container or color do you remember most?

☕️ HAPPY NATIONAL COFFEE DAY! ☕️

At 65, my cup of ambition has become my cup of intention. ❤️

As Dolly Parton sings, “Tumble outta bed and I stumble to the kitchen, pour myself a cup of ambition…” 🎶☕️

Well, these days, my morning coffee has become a whole lot more than ambition.

Every morning I take coffee I genuinely LOVE and blend in three things that have become part of my daily routine: RYZE mushroom blend, collagen peptides, and MCT oil. I hit it with my little blender, and it becomes this creamy, frothy latte that feels downright decadent.

And here’s my confession: I don’t particularly like RYZE as coffee. 😂 But I do like what’s hiding inside it!

🍄 RYZE MUSHROOM BLEND
It contains Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps, Reishi, Turkey Tail, Shiitake, and King Trumpet mushrooms. Lion’s Mane is the one that first caught my attention because it’s being studied for memory and cognitive function. Cordyceps is associated with energy, Reishi with relaxation, and Turkey Tail has generated interest around gut and immune health—which fascinates me because we’re learning so much about the gut-brain connection.

🥥 MCT OIL
MCTs are quickly metabolized and can produce ketones, which our brains can use as an alternative source of energy. There’s interesting research underway involving MCTs, ketones, cognition, and healthy aging. No, the science doesn’t say this prevents Alzheimer’s or dementia—but it’s an area I find incredibly interesting.

✨ COLLAGEN PEPTIDES
This is my beauty addition! Collagen has been studied for things such as skin hydration, elasticity, and connective-tissue support. Personally, I’ve been very happy with what I’ve noticed.

☕️ AND THE COFFEE ITSELF!
Caffeine can improve alertness and attention, so Dolly definitely knew something when she called it a cup of ambition! 😂

I’m not suggesting that any of these things are magic or that they can prevent Alzheimer’s, dementia, or aging. I’m simply sharing what I do, why I do it, and what I’ve personally noticed. I genuinely feel this little morning ritual has made a difference in my skin, my gut, and how focused I feel.

And the best part? It tastes like I’m treating myself to a beautiful frothy latte every morning.

At 65, my cup of ambition has become my cup of intention. ❤️☕️

Happy Coffee Day, friends! And if you’re curious about what I use or how I make it, ask me!
