Several months ago, while checking out at the Attic Window, I noticed a magazine I've never heard about: MaryJanesFarm. This magazine has caught my attention to where I purchased a yearly subscription. Over the years I've subscribed to Bon Appetit, Cooking Light and way back when Good Housekeeping and McCalls. The Cooking Light issues took over my kitchen and everywhere. Soon I was buying the annual editions to clear my shelf of the individual issues. While I've unloaded most of them and all the Bon Appetit, a few annual editions and some issues are still tucked away in my pantry. 2003 Annual Recipes will never be discarded! Now a new magazine to collect: MJF!
Mary Janes Farm is a combination of farming for women and those of us that are curious but not necessarily committed to shoveling manure everyday or maybe getting close to it. It's modern but traditional. Of the four or five issues I've read, a section on quilting is always present. The surprise was the gluten free recipes it provides as well. It's all about being environmentally wise and organic is popular as well. The April-May issue had come interesting small projects:an origami snack bad and luggage tags. Lately it seems, that all the quilt stores are offering classes on making bags....why not luggage tags to match. Unfortunately, they don't offer the pattern on line - but I found this tutorial:Luggage Tag by Soubelles.
If you're interested in sprout wheat - get a copy! Where else can you learn about gluten free and eating wheat with its sprouts!
