Kitchen Witch

The Kitchen Witch was a toy witch on a broom attached to a string that would be flown onto the set at certain segments of the show. The purpose of the witch was to deliver letters to the hosts, which were usually humorous in nature, and often made up of stories by fictional individuals for the sake of comedy. These letters would always segue into the theme of the recipes that would be prepared.

In early episodes the witch would arrive near the end of the episode, which would reveal the theme of next week's episode's recipes. In later episodes, the witch would begin appearing at the beginning of the episodes in order to give the theme of the recipes that would be prepared on that very episode.

Trivia

 * An unintentional occurrence was that when the hosts would throw the witch, the crew would sometimes fail to catch her, causing the witch to fall back down into the shot once again.

Paper Towels
While recipes were bountiful, paper towels were not.
