The Coven is a group of girls who got the name back in High School, when they were inseparable (and still are). But their personalities aren't nearly as dark as their nickname implies. They can often be found eating cupcakes, drinking champagne because it's Wednesday night, and dishing small-town gossip
Magdalena "Maggie"
Magdalena "Maggie", often dubbed the "leader" of the Coven, is as vivacious as she is beautiful. She's the catalyst and everyone's best friend. Maggie's parents run a local Mexican bistro called El Pueblo Penqueno, serving high end, foodie-worthy Mexican cuisine. When she's not hanging with the Coven, Maggie can often be found helping her father introduce new seasonal new dishes, like their Plantain Taquitos and Ceviche Mixto.

Adelaide runs the local coffee shop Brew-Ha-Ha which is the center for all things coffee. She's known for her special coffee blends as well as some fun, seasonal pairings. Nothing spices up a drab morning, or a Monday, like walking into Brew-Ha-Ha for a quick whiff of nirvana.

So she works tirelessly in her coffee shop, making it the best in town. Will she meet someone soon? I think she will. Stay tuned!
Julia "Jules"
Julia "Jules" runs the Sweet Spot, a local bakery and the official meeting place for the Coven. Her specialty cupcakes are pretty famous. If you're in the neighborhood, drop by and try her Mississippi Mud Cupcakes, Peanut Butter Truffle Cupcakes or her Orgasm Cupcakes. I'm not kidding, they're the bomb. Jules is outspoken and single, with a killer sweet tooth.
As a little girl, Caroline was the one who was always bringing strays home, or injured animals, or pretending to heal an injury a stuffed dog, cat or toy elephant had suffered. So it was no surprise to anyone, when she decided to enter veterinarian school and opened her own practice in Harper's Corner. Caroline shared her big, rambling house with 4 dogs, 2 cats, rabbits (she's lost count how many), and two chickens named Lucy and Ethel. She also works pro-bono for a local rescue, giving her time to helpless animals who have been discarded by their owners (who she wants to pummel), left for dead, or hit by cars. There's no time to date, so she says. But I think a nice, animal-loving male would be a perfect match for sweet Caroline. Stay tuned for her story!
