If you would like to get the feel of the southern part of the U.S. - from Virginia to Florida to Texas, this is the perfect magazine.
This magazine contains many great recipes each and every issue...some are ’to-die-for’..i.e. catfish and hushpuppies, pecan pies, Southwestern Rollups, spicey Taco Teasers...to name a few.
Here, too, you will find many travel articles in each edition. The articles give so much good information on various parts of Southern U.S. that, even if you can’t get to those destinations, you will be glad to have read about them!
Gardening articles abound in this magazine, also; written for the beginner gardner or the master gardners, all will appreciate the beautiful pictures and ’how-to’ instructions given in each article. When, where, how and what to plant, perennials and annuals; which plants and flowers survive in extreme heat, and which do not. There are very interesting explanations about the various plants/flowers to enjoy.
You will also find many good ’down-home’ experiences to read about in this magazine. And many articles about the great cities and hospitality of the South.
There is wonderful information in each issue for garden parties, bar-b-ques, picnics, Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners and decorating - indoors and out - that are treasures.
This magazine is not just for women; great for men to enjoy, too!
You can go to their website to subscribe at a discounted price - https://southernliving.com. If there is any drawback about this magazine, it is that there are only 6 issues per year; but each issue is chocked-full of so much information, it would take you two months to absorb it all! I don’t find that a ’’con’’.
I’ve been reading this magazine for many years, and am yet to be disappointed with any issue; I highly recommend. I just renewed my subscription for 3 years at $36.00 (U.S.) with a 4th year free.
