When Arden picked her widowed mother up at the airport, she had an ominous feeling. Old rumors in the family attributed magic powers to her mother's cooking. Every time Arden attended a committee meeting, armed with some of her mother's baked goods, her apprehension increased. After eating the goodies, people behaved in strange ways and the unexpected happened. Along the way to knowing her mother, her sisters, and herself, Arden watched as her mother collected a noted cardiologist, construction tycoon, restaurant millionaire, and learned judge as "devoted" friends and suitors. For your enjoyment of this humorous reading, Arden has included her mother's recipes, but reproducing her magic depends on you.
