From the Kitchen to the Table exists to bring people together through stories, connection, and community. Rooted in the joy of Pickleball, the strategy and friendship of Mahjong, and the everyday moments that make life meaningful, this podcast celebrates the places where we gather and the people who make those spaces feel like home.
My mission is to use my God‑given gifts — energy, encouragement, and a love for bringing people together — to share real stories that inspire belonging, spark joy, and remind us that community is built one conversation, one game, and one shared moment at a time.
Two games, two personalities, one host. On the pickleball court, I’m fast, loud, and fighting for every dink. (Just the loud is true) At the mahjong table, I’m calm, calculating, and a little sneaky. Join me as I figure out which one is the real me, and what happens when they both show up to play.

You just walk in?
Pickleball and mahjong, together at last. In this episode Sandra sits down with Kim Lynn, the club fashionista and the go-to person for everything mahjong. “You just walk in?” is what Kim’s husband asks when she randomly shows up at places to play mahjong. But for Sandra, the question means something more: when Kim walks in, the room fills with energy, from her fashion to her tile collections. Kim shares how Crazy Rich Asians and a group of friends inspired her love of the game, and the two chat all things pickle and tile!
P.S. I do NOT believe Kim was ever "content with one set"

You Come for the Game, and you Stay for the People!
In today’s Episode I welcome my good friend Deb Haggett. Deb and I first met years ago through Toastmasters, crossed paths again on the pickleball courts in Wallingford, Connecticut, and then reconnected thanks to a simple Facebook post asking, "Does anyone play mahjong?" One coffee date later, a friendship was rekindled and eventually grew into something much bigger: the Pickle & Tile Club.
