My Bon Appetite collection dates back to 1980. I would never dream of throwing one of them out.

It's funny you brought that up because every day I look at my very messy pile of cookbooks and think I HAVE to do something about this. When I start going through them I lose myself though, sometimes for hours flipping through the pages. But I really have to do something about them, lol. At least put them in some kind of order because I'm certainly not getting rid of them!! And your bars are awesome! LIke you said, healthier than rice krispy treats and what an adorable helper you had. :o) Great post Kim!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15363106628279020217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6163770583663178916.post-12810122657888217722010-09-21T09:48:49.189-04:002010-09-21T09:48:49.189-04:00I love this - I am actually always reeling in and ...I love this - I am actually always reeling in and condensing. I have over 20 yars of Bon Appetits...(organized by month). Every month I take out a few and browse - looking for seasonal.

I have a big binder with plastic sleeves and dividers, so I tear out any flagged recipes and file them there. Then the magazines go out to freecycle. I do still have a huge basket full of MArtha mags that go back 4 or 5 years, but I still look back at them! I have them categorized by month, so each month I pull out the issues to flip through for dinner or craft ideas. There is so much in there I rarely buy new magazines.Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01564392753668429180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6163770583663178916.post-87750657982623964002010-09-21T07:02:23.622-04:002010-09-21T07:02:23.622-04:00Why dont you make a kind of scrap book with all th...Why dont you make a kind of scrap book with all the recipes from your martha stewart living favourites, that way you get to keep all your favourites, but you will also clear up loads of space.<br />*kisses* HH<br />p.s. now that i have an ipad i can get ms living and every day food in digital form, its awesome and doesnt take up any space (plus those mags are hard to find in the UK)Heavenly Housewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14283933713343453486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6163770583663178916.post-89291554604154055732010-09-20T23:58:11.195-04:002010-09-20T23:58:11.195-04:00Aw...that's so sweet :) I think of all of you...Aw...that's so sweet :) I think of all of you as my friends too.
