Which are your favourite food/recipe/housekeeping magazines?

Want to get a Christmas subscription as a gift, Family Circle has now stopped something along the same lines.

I would luuurve to have Real Simple, but it´s from the States and no international subs allowed....

I love good food - no housekeeping, but recipes are clear, all nutritional info worked out and easy to find. Also all tested.

YOu can get subscriptions delivered to most places as well I think.

I love Delicious magazine. I've only bought it a few times but have used LOADS of recipes from those few copies. I was thinking of asking someone to get me a subscription but I know I would want to keep every copy and my house already has too many magazines that I am hanging onto for one reason or another...

A friend of mine gave me BBC Good Food for a year and I thought it was fantastic - great mix of weekday suppers and smart dinners....

another vote for Good Food. also like Good Housekeeping esp Christmas issue

I also love Delicious. I've got a subscription for it and have had since Jan 05. I've used loads of recipes from each mag. and the articles are interesting too.

Never heard of Delicious. It´s a UK one right?

Good Housekeeping Xmas edition on my list alread too oxocube - my greatest aspiration in life is to live in the good housekeeping xmas edition......

I like the Waitrose food magazine but appreciate it's no good for a gift. I rather love Good Housekeeping (esp the Christmas one) but it makes me feel like I'm old. Easy Living isn't all house/food - fair amount of fashion/interviews/lifestyle as well, but is quite good.

Here is the Delicious website

BBC Good Food mag.

Yes, Good Housekeeping is a good mix, but I agree about feeling middle-aged when I read it... it's the one magazine that my mum has always had regularly! Waitrose magazine is beautiful, and some good recipes, but sometimes a little pretentious (well, it IS waitrose, natch!).

I think the Sainsbury's one is fab, and really good value for money (£1.20). Dunno if you get gift subscriptions though.

(NB top tip - if you get a Waitrose credit card, you get the magazine free, even if you never buy anything else with it)

Olive magazine is very good as well,bt you can't beat good food,have been collecting them for years.
They have a website now as well.
