Magazines

Why do we keep magazines? Last night I was doing some work in my room commonly known as My Shed, I made a pile of all of my most recent magazines.

When I receive a new magazine in the mail I do the following: First I flip through and remove all of the postcards that are loose between the pages, then I start at the back page and work my way forward. When I see a recipe or article that looks interesting I fold over the page. When I get to the front cover I set it down, and most likely never pick it back up. I might share the points of interest with a daughter or friend, but most likely I will never make the recipe that looked so good.

Sarah suggested that I rip those recipes out of the magazine and save them, then throw the magazine away. Great idea, but I already have a drawer full of ripped out recipes that I have never tried. I am going to try to use these recipes in 2009, I will write about them and share my favorites. Does anyone want some magazines?
