Favorite Magazines, Anyone?

<p>I just this past year was introduced to Garden and Gun. When I first heard about it, I thought the person was trying to be funny. Interesting magazine, but I like Southern Living better.</p>

<p>Vanity Fair
Vogue
New York
Real Simple
Harper’s Bazaar</p>

<p>Of all the fashion magazines, Vanity Fair is my favority. They have some very well written, indepth articles.</p>

<p>I like MORE magazine. I do like Oprah for the gift suggestions she has. On one hand I like Real Simple; on the other hand, it just feels like simplicity-porn to me and the tips are repeated from issue to issue.</p>

<p>On a more intellectual basis, I’d say the Atlantic, the New Yorker, the Economist and perhaps Vanity Fair (though they are a little too obsessed with the Kennedys and Marilyn Monroe - enough already).</p>

<p>I love magazines and have subscriptions to many. They range from self-help/health/women’s magazines (MORE, Real Simple, Self, Prevention) to foodie magazines (Cook’s Illustrated and Wine Spectator) to Architectural Digest. Also get a few gardening magazines (Organic Gardening and Horticulture). My H gets the New Yorker and The New York Review of Books. I try to keep up with both, but given that they are weekly I get behind. I also try to read the NY Times every day (I do the crossword puzzle every day but Saturday) and skim my local newspaper.</p>

<p>The New Yorker.
My parents had a subscription starting in 1948, maybe sooner. I grew up reading the cartoons, graduating to the articles, and eventually subscribing myself when DH and I were married. I have had a subscription since 1983. Looking at their website of old magazine covers can give me an almost dizzying sense of deja vu. Some of those old covers I remember as if they were delivered yesterday… The result of fewer TV channels and a lot of free time as a kid!</p>

<p>Rolling Stone.
We got a subscription for my son years ago during a magazine subscription fundraiser, but I keep renewing it because I really enjoy the articles.</p>

<p>Garden Gate and Midwest Living
Use to get the Economist but couldn’t keep up with it.</p>

<p>Food & Wine.
Better Homes & Gardens.</p>

<p>The Smithsonian Magazine.</p>

<p>It’s the only magazine in which I read every article, cover to cover.</p>

<p>^^ Another Smithsonian fan here. Also Vogue Knitting, Sunset and Better Homes & Gardens.</p>

<p>Fine Homebuilding, The New Yorker, Cooks Illustrated.</p>

<p>Smithsonian is now on my iPad. </p>

<p>I like to read Money Magazine and PC World.</p>

<p>Saveur, Lucky Peach, The Art of Eating, Wired, Fast Company, AACAP Journal.</p>

<p>Money
AARP</p>

<p>Would like to learn how to retire someday</p>

<p>Oh, and People while at Dr. waiting rooms</p>

<p>The Week
(British) House and Garden</p>

<p>Wired
Fast Company</p>

<p>Food Network Magazine
Everyday with Rachel Ray</p>

<p>Mother Jones</p>

<p>People subscribe to magazines? Isn’t that what appointments at the doctors, dentists and the stylist are for?</p>

<p>The time spent in a waiting room is not nearly enough to get through good long-form journalism. (Insert stories of very long waits here.) And when I get my hair cut, I talk to the stylist. :)</p>
