That would mean that the winner is:
Lol...sounds exactly like me! Only we were NEVER allowed to read such worldly magazines, heh. Now I read all I can get my hands on, just for the sheer joy of reading (and "culturing" myself, lol!!). Add me to the drawing!
Congrats, Melinda!
I love FamilyCircle Magazine!
When I was a teenager, I craved any sort of reading material that I could possibly put my hands on due to being so sheltered as a homeschooler and my parents getting us into a really weird restrictive religious subculture. The ladies in the church we went to felt really bad for me and they would bring piles of their used magazines for me to take home and read. I would devour them from cover to cover. FamilyCircle was one of those magazines. It didn't matter if I wasn't interested in a certain topic, I would read it simply for the pure joy of reading it. Eventually, my father decided that magazines like RedBook, FamilyCircle, GoodHousekeeping, etc. didn't meet his requirements for proper reading material for ultra-conservative girls. Something about "feminist and humanistic propaganda" and blah blah blah. I always found that mind boggling because wouldn't magazines named "GoodHousekeeping" and "FamilyCircle" be housekeeping and family oriented?
Anyway....when I moved out and got married, I got my own subscriptions to these magazines and still read them from cover to cover. Okay, okay, so I don't look at the cosmetics and fashion sections because I'm a "dirty Vermont hippie," but Girly loves those parts. And...when I'm done with my magazines, I always drop them off at the "magazine exchange" at the local health food store so someone else can benefit from them.....just like I did all those years ago when the ladies at church would give their copies to me.
So, my subscription is ready to be renewed and guess what?? When I renew....
I can give a FREE SUBSCRIPTION to someone else!
I decided to do a give-away here on my blog for that free one-year subscription to FamilyCircle magazine!
Leave a comment on my blog to let me know you'd like to be entered and let your friends know, too!
I'll pick a winner next Wednesday, August 15th.
