HOME RENOVATION
28 | May 2019
Carrie and John
Morey didn’t originally
plan to cook in the
raised fireplace in their
remodeled kitchen.
But it has inspired a
favorite family activity:
pizza parties with their
three girls, Sarah,
Caroline, and Cate.
I
t’s nearing
dinnertime,
and Carrie
Morey is
whizzing
around her kitchen.
Her husband, John,
stokes the fire in
the brick fireplace,
and their three
daughters sit at
the island catching
up. “We’re not
living room people,”
Carrie says. Instead,
they’re kitchen
people; Carrie is
known for her
line of biscuits—
Callie’s Charleston
Biscuits—and
Callie’s Hot Little
Biscuit eateries. So
when the couple
purchased their
1950s ranch-style
home in Mount
Pleasant, SC, they
zeroed in on the
largest room—the
living room—as
their future kitchen.
A renovation
DINING in For a foodie whose business
has turned out millions of Southern-style biscuits, the kitchen is her
hot spot—and a place for making wood-fired pizzas with the kids.
