The last few years several of the popular food mags that HAD always been my favs went thru some changes, re-vamped and slowly became publications that I just didn't like very much anymore. So, gradually, I stopped re-newing my subscriptions, and stopped picking others up at the mag-racks.
I've missed my long-time favorites- they've been dear friends who seemingly just went away- forgetting to ever call or write!
Tonight in the check-out line at Kroger's for the heck of it I picked up the April "Country Living". My Mom used to read this when I was a kid. Although it's not just a cooking magazine- it does have a nice food section, as I recall, with recipes, articles and great photos each month. This month's certainly was nice w/ some cajun dishes, plus a nice farm-wedding w/ a fancier menu...
CL also boasts many of my other FAV past-times right on the cover, listed directly under the magazine's name: decorating, cooking, crafts, collecting, gardens.
I looked thru this new issue and was thoroughly enertained and even inspired by what I saw.
And in light of the fact that I currently have no food mag meeting my needs, this really pleased me! I can't wait to see the May issue!
