I have a fondness for magazines whose graphics and layout department make my writing look really, really good. This was one of my favorite little humorous essays anyway, but now, with the oh-so pretty laundry basket and pink sidebar, it’s my favorite EVER (so far).
You can go to the online version of the magazine directly at www.womensfocusmagazine.com and [...]
I’ve been waiting for this. While I hate to pay the newstand price for magazines, I often do. Why do I pay $4.95 for a single issue when I could subscribe for about $15 per year?
To illustrate, I should take a picture of the stacks of magazines I have around the house. But you can probably look around [...]
Have you heard this story? I first read about it at theWAHMmagazine.com blog, From the Editor’s Desk, in post called The AP Doesn’t Like Bloggers.

Charmian posted the results of her first coffee-roasting experiment today at Christie’s Corner.
Um, yeah… remove the lid on the popcorn popper first. Sorry!
I should probably post something about the mac-daddy espresso machine we have sitting on our my kitchen counter. It takes up so much space in real life I feel obligated to give it a little virtual space.
It’s hard to be annoyed with it for too long though, even if it is bulky and not-so-attractive. The thing makes me [...]
I just found out, quite by accident, that Borders has terminated its partnership with Amazon and now has its own online store.
I couldn’t be happier. The AP News story reports that as a Borders Rewards Club member, I will now be able to use my rewards and coupons at the online store, which I previously couldnot [...]
…and he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. ~Psalm 1:3 (KJV)
