Welcome to Happy Clarissa
Sharing my love of family, food, and the joy of gathering—from weeknight dinners to 25 parties in 2025.
About Me
Hi, I’m Clarissa!
I’m a social butterfly, hostess at heart, and a proud mom living in Texas who believes the best memories are made around the table.
My husband of 20 years and I are parents to a busy teen and tween, and while life moves fast, I always make time for what matters most—family, faith, connection, and celebrating the everyday.
What You'll Find Here
Happy Clarissa is my cozy corner of the internet where I share:
Weeknight meal ideas that bring everyone to the table
Entertaining inspiration to make gatherings joyful, not stressful
Tips for creating a home that feels warm, lived-in, and full of heart
25 Parties in 2025
This year, I’m on a mission to host 25 parties—some big, some simple—to celebrate life, love, and friendship. You’ll get a front-row seat to the fun, the planning, and the real-life messes that come with it.
Thanks for Being Here
Whether you’re looking for a new recipe, planning a gathering, or just in need of a little joy—I hope you feel right at home here.
