The kitchen is often the heart of the home — a space where meals are prepared, conversations unfold, homework gets done, and family and friends naturally gather. With so much daily life happening there, it should be a room that feels both functional and welcoming.

It’s that time again for my annual review of the American Kennel Club’s Meet the Breeds event at Javits Center. When people see my coverage here and on social media, they often ask, “Gail, don’t they have any large breeds at this show?” And of course, the answer is yes—lots and lots of large breeds.
However, my strategy for the show is to focus on the small dogs, mostly because of the off-the-charts cuteness factor, which is irresistible to me.
