For a while I've been good - I've been keeping track of what I have, what I like, and either cancelling subscriptions when I realize that a magazine is pure trash or not renewing if I find I'm just not getting anything out of the magazine any more. I'm also better about saving stuff from the magazine for my idea file - I tear out the page (craft / cooking / health / shopping / etc) and stuff it in a file folder and the magazine goes into the recycle bin right away.
Last night after SnB I popped into the bookstore. That can be dangerous for me - they have so many more magazines! I was very good though and only bought one because I was so excited to see it (didn't know such a thing existed!)
MaryJanesFarm magazine - farmgirls!!
This issue has the overall theme of "Simply Bee - the Spirit of the Beehive" and I have to say I love it! I love the feel of the paper, I love the way it's laid out, I love the informative articles (Why are the bees disappearing? Natural Sweetners! Recycle felted sweaters!). I love the quotations throughout. I like the ads.
I think I'm going to subscribe...
Links I love (found in the issue)
**CTHoney.com - local honey, Bees without Borders
**Schoolgardenco.com - natural bodycare products, profits go to schools
**Sweetpoison.com - Aspartame dangers
**There's a brief story that makes me want to make a hexagon quilt

You make me laugh! I too like to buy magazines. Maybe we should swap issues sometime...
I love magazines too, but I stopped collecting them.. I have no place to store them. They really add up.. If they didn't have so many advertisements it would take up less space.
