I told you it was a sickness

Yep, another one came in the mail today. It's my first issue ever and I am dying to sit and read and let the hearting begin. Found this one at my local library and just had to have it. Mary Janes Farm magazine.




Now let me be clear. I am not in any way an organic type of gal. Grew up in the midwest, but not on a farm. Visited a farm or two. Doesn't really count, though....didn't even wear boots.

This darn magazine is just so beautiful that I might have to give organic a try. Who knows? Could be another thing I heart.

I Heart mail

Why, you say? Mail can be downright depressing. Junk, bills, overdue notices, catalogs you can't afford to buy anything from....

The thing is that because of my mild (cough, cough) magazine addiction (see yesterday's post) I very often have a magazine in the mailbox. When I say often, I mean about 18 out of 30ish days. If I could, I'd arrange it so I could get one everyday....hmmmm.

Today was one of those days! I can hardly wait to get through this post, grab the chocolate, settle into my favorite chair and get lost for an hour. The magazine du'jour?



And since my other favorites, Country Home and Cottage Living are no longer around, this is especially exciting. Now to decide which chocolate goes best with Country Living....

Hearting by the dozen

Anyone who knows me knows that I have a bit of an addiction to magazines. Okay, maybe it's a sickness.

I heart magazines. I mean, I really heart them. There have been times when I have had more than a dozen subscriptions at a time. Lately, in this yucky economy, many of them are closing up shop. It's painful. It hurts my heart(ing) every time I hear of another one.....especially when I have a subscription. And I very likely do.

One of my favorites, Hallmark Magazine, is still here and I truly hope it doesn't go anywhere. There is nothing about this magazine I don't heart......well, except that it is only bi-monthly.



The layout, the design, the articles, the everything else. It really is eye candy, but in an extraordinarily useful way. You know how you feel when you find just the right card and it says just the right thing and you feel all yummy inside? Well, that's this entire magazine! Funny, I don't even mind that they have recipes....you know, for cooking.
