Don't know. But it's a good magazine.
Pocket size, so you can tote it along with you.
Close to 100% recipes, and not fancy recipes, either, sort of an
upscale version of the Woman's Day recipes...the type of recipes you'd
expect would use shortcut food items, because they are homey,
family-friendly recipes, not fancy dishes, but the hook is, they
don't. A green bean casserole in this magazine would use fresh beans
and freshly made bechamel sauce, not canned beans and campbell's soup,
for example.
It's Martha's sensibilities (Only the freshest, highest quality
ingredients) applied to good, basic home cooking.
It's refreshing, because it's not "gourmet", it's just really for
people who appreciate good food.
