About Me

Kitchen Magic
Welcome to the Kitchen Magic blog! We hope you will think of this as a place to share your thoughts about the home and learn how other people feel — whether it’s a treasured recipe, a family fun activity, tips on household care, a memory of something that happened in your kitchen, or thoughts about the materials and styles that make up the heart of your home. Feel free to drop us a line or ask a question here. We’ll also have some news, some fun and on Fridays, we’ll feature a story of Wescue, our dog (mostly Westies) rescue efforts. Enjoy! And make yourself at home!"
