Desert's "Gadget Gal"
OPENS NEW STORE

Charismatic Jan Boydstun, owner of Kitchen Kitchen, has relocated her new store just 7 DOORS DOWN from the other in the Ralph's Village, Indian Wells. In addition, she has added a brand new beautiful kitchen for cooking classes, demos and events. Jan's parents, Phil and Char Carter started the business in 1979 while Jan was away at Long Beach State.

After finishing college, Jan had a fascinating life – a job with Amtrak, American Airlines and as a photographer in Australia, all paving the way for her path to the desert, to help her parents relocate their Rancho Mirage store in Indian Wells. "They asked me to come for four months...20 years ago!" She found herself loving the business and stayed. She met her husband, Gary, about the same time, had three sons, and the rest is history! Since then, Jan's parents have passed on and she has evolved into the "media darling", known as "The Gadget Gal". She enthusiastically sells gadgets that make life easier in the kitchen. You can catch her half hour infomercial on Channel 13 and 14 or book her to do a seminar at your next event. You can also tune into her radio show called "Jan's Kitchen" every Saturday from noon-1pm on KNEWS Radio, 94.3 FM or 970 AM. Go by and see the new store and find out what everyone is talking about "If they don't have it – you don't need it!"

Located at 74-945 Highway 111, Indian Wells, CA. For more information call 1-760-773-9464.
