Martha's Got Issues!

The November issue of Martha Stewart Living is starting to arrive in mailboxes!

November is one of my favorite issues of Living and this issue lives up to that 'favorite' status, hands down! The simple but sophisticated styling on the cover alone makes it a favorite in my magazine collection.

In every November issue, there are always delicious ideas to make any Thanksgiving feast spectacular! A couple hints of what's inside for this year:

*Turkey for Every Table
* Glints of Genius (Bright cut - a traditional handicraft)
* Sensational Sides
* Woven Welcomes (Geometric patterns for decor and desserts)
* Pilgrim's Progress (Re-creation)
* Soft Focus (velvet)

Also inside this issue is a special ad featuring not one, but TWO special holiday issues! The first issue, "Have Yourself a Handmade Christmas" features 151 easy ideas for everyone on your list; treats from the kitchen and creative cards and wrappings. This special holiday issue goes on sale on Monday, October 13th. (If you're a Target shopper, you will more than likely find it near the check out by Friday of this week.)

The second special holiday issue, "Season's Eatings - Celebrating from Thanksgiving to New Year's" will include over 101 recipes, strategies and time savers in the kitchen and good things for the table. If you enjoy entertaining over the holidays, you'll want to pick up this special issue.

The second issue notes that it is a special collectible issue. As a collector of Martha Stewart items, all holiday special issues are collectible and claim a good price on such services as eBay. The Season's Eatings special issue IS highly collectible since it's the first issue of such a 'double holiday' press. The Season's Eatings special holiday issue goes on sale November 3. Again, Target shoppers, you should be able to find this issue by October 31.

Each issue is listing for 6.95.
