FOODIE EVENTS FOR THE AUDACIOUS ISLANDERS
OF WHIDBEY ISLAND
Bringing people together in settings where you can get to know others in the community while enjoying a delightful food experience. My new addition is the Local Whidbey Podcast! Meet the Audacious Islanders on Whidbey!

MARGARET CROOM IS MAGSY
After years of being in the digital and tech industry in many locations, Margaret and her husband Mike, moved to the PNW, settling on Whidbey Island during COVID. They bought a home the community calls ‘Chateau Whidbey’, on the bluff facing Camano Island. Margaret created a delightful supper club to meet fellow foodies and bring her version of a With Magsy experience.
In the Southwest, gatherings are a way of life, and With Magsy events capture that spirit. These curated gatherings offer unique opportunities to connect with people you might not ordinarily meet—individuals who value meaningful interactions and a great time. To attend, you’ll need to subscribe for an exclusive invitation. Event details are hosted on a private platform, accessible only through a passcode provided to subscribing members, ensuring a truly intimate and special experience.
Margaret has written a book “The Easygoing Host: Your Guide to to Hosting Relaxed and Enjoyable Dinner Gatherings“. It reached #1 in it’s category on Amazon on the first day it was launched. She hopes that the ‘gather culture’ she grew up in will come across in the book to help hosts give that “I got this vibe’ in order to create in person gathering over great food!
Always Expect …
If you love gathering as much as I do, you’ll adore With Magsy events. Feeling inspired to host your own? With Magsy is here to help make your vision a reality. And for those feeling unsure about hosting the perfect dinner party, brunch, or gathering, my book, *The EasyGoing Host*, is your go-to guide. It’s packed with practical advice to help you host with confidence and ease—no stress, just joy!

TESTIMONIALS
Bravo on a beautiful Hawaiian meal this afternoon!
Enjoyed it as always! And despite Mr. C being introverted, he told me he really enjoyed being at your home today..I can tell you waaaay out of his comfort zone but he did really good and he absolutely loved the presence and people of Chateau Whidbey ❤️🥰 .
Enjoyed Myself
It was marvelous, and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Thank you for putting that together. I probably have no idea how much actual effort it entails, but I think the level of preparation and coordination really showed up well. I loved the mingling. I think that might have been my favorite part!
Lovely Experience
Thank you so much for the lovely experience today at your home. The setting, and the local guests were all wonderful. We made some new friends that we plan to see again soon. We also plan come again later this year. Bravo! Keep it happening!
I Can’t Wait to Come Back!
This was a delightful Supper Club! I met the most interesting people, had wonderful conversation!! I can’t wait to come back!!
Truly What Life Is About!
The Supper Club was amazing. We hope to be a part of this for many years to come. The opportunity to meet and talk to many different people is truly what life is about.
Don’t Miss Their Next la Teuf!
Mike and I really enjoyed ourselves today as well as our friends Kathleen and Tom. We couldn’t stop cooing over your beautiful home and I made sure they visited your circular bathroom to enjoy what you’ve done especially the infinity reflection mirrors and inlays.
A Parisian theme is so chic and not only paired with your décor gorgeously but even the grey, cloudy weather was very Paris in the spring.
A Beautiful Setting on the Bluff, Gorgeous Views!
… saturated in a very “French Chateau” atmosphere, I was immediately welcomed, as a solo guest, and given my name tag.
I was thinking to myself, how is ALL of this so good? There was lovely banter in between, a sort of “get to know everyone”….which I truly believe helped bring us all together in the experience.
I am so glad I went!
I Met New Friends!
This was my first time attending. I had no idea what to expect and that made me a bit apprehensive about coming as I would be by myself. From the moment I arrived, you and Mike welcomed me as if we were old friends sharing your house for a wonderful evening! I look forward to my next chance to attend another event!
A Beautiful Thing!
We have friends on the Island who we will definitely recommend to With Magsy. What you are doing to promote community is a beautiful thing. We look forward to our next With Magsy experience.
