i love to read.......and i love magazines.....they serve a good purpose for the "short" read or just to laze around and look through.......not about deep concentration........i mostly subscribe to home magazines (i.e. country living types.)...i also love martha stewart and real simple....real simple is probably my favorite of its type....and tho i love cooking light....i seem to get most of my recipes online anymore if i dont already have what i need
