Family Fun: Leaf Cards

Fall is here, and with it lots of family fun! Here's an easy and inexpensive activity you can do with your kids.

You'll need:

some fallen autumn leaves
white or colored paper
an old newspaper
poster paint and brushes
pencils, crayons or pens

Cover a workspace on counter or tabletop with the newspaper.  Now take a piece of paper and fold it in half to make a card shape.

Take one of the leaves and put it on the newspaper, vein side up. Paint the leaf with poser pait.You can use one color for the entire leaf, or make different areas different colors.

Place the leaf vein side down on the paper and rub gently. You can repeat with other leaves if there is room on the paper. Let the paint dry.

Now write a happy message on the front of the card and inside, and voila! You and your kids have leaf cards to send to friends or family.

Feel free to share your family fun ideas here.

Recipe: Potato Soup

Autumn is soup weather, and reader Nelda G. was kind enough to share with us this hearty recipe for potato soup.

4 cups of potatoes cut into small chunks (about 4 large potatoes)
1/2 cup diced celery
1 cup diced onion
I diced carrot
4 slices of bacon, diced
smoked sausage cut in pieces (either kielbasa or bratwurst)
2 cups milk
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp oregano
minced parsley

Add vegetables to large pot. Add water to cover. Cook until tender, and mash.

Fry bacon. Add bacon and grease to pot. Add milk and stir until creamy consistency is reached. Add salt and spices and sausage. Cook slowly for another half-hour.

Nelda adds that the flavor improves if the soup is made earlier in the day and left to sit in the refrigerator before being reheated.

Wescue: Phinneas



Phinneas (seen above in the pet carrier) is a cute little boy Westie from Lebanon Township, NJ, who is four years old.  His owners had to give him up because they have teenagers and two other dogs, and Phinneas needs more attention to be happy. They want Phinneas to have a better life with people that have more time for him.

Kitchen Magic's pet rescue charity, Wescue, is taking him to his new owners, a retired nurse and her elderly mother. They are very eager to get him and can hardly wait!  They will be living in two homes, one in Massachusetts and a summer home in Maine.

Phinneas is seen above with Shannon and Molly, the mother and daughter pair who are now in their new home.

Please support your local animal shelter. You can make a world of difference for a deserving cat or dog.

Organize Your Closet!



If you've got a cluttered closet, here are some tips for bringing order out of the chaos and making life easier.

Hold a fashion show. Empty your closet, then try on each garment in front of a mirror.  Does it fit? What will you wear it with? When will you wear it?

Separate the clothes into piles: those that need mending; those that can and will be worn now; those that can and will be worn in other seasons; those that you don't want anymore but that can be donated; and those that need to be thrown away. Follow the same steps with your shoes.

Toss the hangers that don't match and the wire hangers, which damage clothes. Now put those shoes and clothes that will be worn now back in the closet. Put the ones for other seasons elsewhere. Put garments that go together in the closet together, so outfits can be assembled quickly.

Kitchen Magic can help you make the most of your storage space.  Based on your preferences, we'll show you how to utilize all of your vertical closet space including those formerly 'dead' corners. You'll be amazed at the storage you never knew you had!

Kitchen Magic closet systems, like the one seen here, are custom-manufactured using only the finest materials and comes in many stunning colors. Give us a call today at 1-800-237-0799 for a free in-home closet consultation and estimate. You'll be glad you did.

September 19: Arrrgh, 'Tis International Talk Like a Pirate Day, Mateys!


Tomorrow is a great day to make your friends and family think you've lost your mind.

By the way, what do you call a tongue-tied pirate? In arrrr ticulate.

How much did the pirate pay for his earring? A buck an ear.

What do pirates say at Xmas? Ho, ho, ho and a bottle of rum...

Wescue: Shannon and Molly

Shannon and Molly are about 2 years old. From the way they behave and look, we think they are mother and daughter Westie blends (maybe mixed with Cairn Terrier).  

They were discovered abandoned in some bushes in Edgewater, NJ.  They have been under the Westie Rescue care for a couple of weeks now.  They are called two “cup-cakes" (since they are as sweet as can be). They have been have been spayed and micro-chipped by the Westie Rescue folks. Wescue, the Kitchen Magic animal rescue charity, is taking them to live with a retired couple in Massachusetts today.

You can provide deserving pets like Shannon and Molly a happy home. Or you can make a pet's temporary home a little brighter. Please support your local animal shelter today.

This year, Kitchen Magic celebrates its 30th anniversary of providing homeowners with attractive affordable kitchens, baths and other storage. That same year, an obscure cable network in Bristol, CT, started the first of its live sports broadcasts in its "sports center." And although its first on-air interview with University of Colorado football coach Chuck Fairbanks had no sound, the show persevered and is now "SportsCenter," the centerpiece of the ESPN empire.

Kitchen Magic has grown from its first few jobs to being the nation's leader in kitchen and bath remodeling and refacing. Qualified Remodeler lists us as among the 20 largest remodeling companies of any type in the U.S.

When you want scores and highlights, you turn to Sports Center. When you want the kitchen, bath or closet of your dreams, turn to us. Give us a call today at 1-800-237-0799, or visit us at one of our convenient locations near you.
