My mom just got me a subscription to Cooking Light for my birthday.
i'll let ya know what i think of that.

Personally, I was going to let my subscriptions to Gourmet and Bon
Apetit lapse, but found a new-subscriber offer of BOTH magazines for a
year for $20. Less than $1 per issue makes it worth it to wade through
the ads - it's relaxing sometimes. So I'm still getting those but they
sure ain't what they used t be.

Personally, I'm a little sad to see where Gourmet has gone under Ruth
Reichl's editorship. I really like her writings but she's let Gourmet
go far, far astray from the quality read it once was.
