have you missed your favorite magazines since they practically ALL went out of business?
i HAVE.
i miss Cottage Living, Country Home and Home Companion…to name a few.
my mail box is a sad place these days. (except when chargers arrive…and surprise necklaces!!)
well i am happy happy happy to see people trying it again.
even happier when i "know" the people running it! (in blogland and through emails)
i am all about flea market style.
i can't wait to see what they come up with.

you can read their blog for now until print day.
i hope someday they will call me and say "meg…can you take us on a junking trip through kansas?"
to which i will answer "ummmmm…..YES!!!"
then they will say "can we stay at your house? could you make us baked french toast?"
again…."YES!!!"
i would be all. over. that.
do you hear me linda and heather? let's do it!
bring Ki and Matthew with you too.
i promise i will change out of my pajamas even…and give waffle a bath before you come.
the first magazine hasn't come out quite yet…but soon.
and i will be getting it THAT DAY!
it's fun supporting my "friends".
go leave them a comment today ok?
Heather Richter - Can you do the shopping trip before I move out of Kansas this summer? (military spouse). Just sayin’ I’d love to know the places to go! You’d rock the magazine world, too. Take care, Heather R.
Heather Bullard - Well, I think I will just have to take you up on your offer. Packing my bags and heading to Kansas! Thanks so much for the open invitation and the shout out for our magazine! Smiles, H
Laura Phelps - I flippin’ love LInda, and I am excited too!!!!!!!!!!!
And just so ya know…I would love to have french toast in your home and go flea marketing in Kansas…ya know…should ya ever ask me to..I would so totally say yes…and I dont have a magazine to publish you in or anything…but I can bring you cake…
think about it…
I know, I know…hard to say no, right?
matthew mead - This is Matthew Mead… we will be fighting over who goes to Kansas to see you and go junking… I’ll cut the straws myself before we draw. Thanks for the mention. Matthew
Carisa - You can be sure if Ki is in your house, I will just “happen” to be in the neighborhood as well.
Becky @ Farmgirl Paints - I miss my magazines too. How dare they just leave us high and dry??
Grace Matthews - This is my kind of magazine…even the poor need to decorate 🙂
Chiot's Run - My mailbox has been a sad place as well, and NO I don’t want MORE magazine to replace Country Home, they’re nothing alike!!!!
Thanks for the recomendation!
mom - You can bring them all to Lawrence and I’ll feed them too! Then we’ll go to all the fun places here! Would love that.
Cate O'Malley - I’m very sad about some of my favorite magazines folding too, particularly Cottage Living and Domino. And this week, Cookie and Gourmet. Love them all!
Kathy - Looks like a great blog….I miss magazines!
Heather - I love magazines, probably a little too much. So, I can’t wait for their blog to be in print. I’m going to read it while relaxing in bed, just like the good ol’ days. I miss you Cottage Living!
I guess I could try reading my favorite mags online while relaxing in bed with my computer, but I’m pretty sure it just wouldn’t be the same.
susie whyte - i loved country home!! i will miss their Christmas edition this year. Can’t wait for this mag…LOVE Ki!!!
jody - will do!
thanks, meg.
jody
Miranda - GASP! Thank you for sharing! Am subscribing right. now.
Dina - IIII KKKNNNOOOWWWW! I’m going to have to be put on meds when/ if (hopefully not…let’s all say a little prayer..) Country Living ever goes…aaahhhhgggg!
Sooo excited for Flea Market Style:-)
Thanks for letting us know.

chris - Ok first you then me next , don’t they want to come to Canada’s oldest outdoor market , they can stay with me , they should make their rounds right !
Chris
your cool friend Cheryl - I’m still mourning the loss of Country Home. Their replacement of BH&G is just not the same…
Ashley Ann - Can I pretend to be publishing a magazine and be hooked up with a junk trip through Kansas with you…and that french toast? I’ll even wash Waffle. You don’t even have to change out of pjs – I’ll wear mine too!
Melanie - Very pretty pictures. I can’t wait to look at it. I love me some magazines. I subscribe to a lot. I would be ashamed to tell you how many. I just made the baked french toast and it was wonderful. I will check out their blog.
jennifer - So exciting! Can’t wait to see it!
Linda@ Restyled Home - Meg!! Thank you so much for helping spread the word about the magazine! I would love to hang out with you for a weekend. I bet we could fill a magazine with all the inspiration found within your home and family life!
Not long now till it hits the stands…maybe early February?!
Flower Patch Farmgirl - It’s pretty sad when the best thing that arrives is the PB catalog and National Geographic for Kids. Decorating blogs are great, but I really miss actual pages.
ps- They will totally take you up on that offer, right? How could they not??
Lora - We are SO having baked french toast this weekend. And, yes, I miss Home Companion…..I just thought they stopped getting it in my little Northern Canadian town. 🙂 I’ll be checking out Flea Market Style!
DreamGirlLisa - I miss those mags too, especially Country Home and ME. Looking forward to the new magazine though. Thanks for your blog, nice to visit a “comfy place”.
Kristin - Those are the exact 3 that I miss a ton to! I will have to check out this new one. Thanks.
Katie - Speaking of baked french toast, Meg, I’m making it for the first time this weekend. It sounds so good — I can’t wait to try it! Thanks for always making your blog so fun and so very happy — your kids are beautiful and Annie makes my day. Happy almost weekend!
amy d - when is it coming back? and if you get to junk through kansas, you better take me with you! 🙂 …and i really miss my country home mag!
