Southern Living magazine features home improvement, decorating, entertaining, cooking, and travel -- and of course, signature Southern recipes. Learn More...
Hi, I’m Beth. I’m a food blogger from Nashville, TN and a Southern girl, born and raised.
Southern Living magazine has been in my life for as long as I can remember. As a child, I would spend hours poring over my mom’s collection, letting my imagination run wild. I would choose house plans and home interior designs that I loved, pretending I was all grown up with a family of my own. In fact, I still have tear-outs from issues that date back to the early 80’s!
When I moved away to college, my mom continued to save old copies of the magazine for me to thumb through when home for a visit. As time went on, I became more interested in different sections of the magazine, particularly food, travel and gardening.
Through the years I’ve torn out many articles regarding travel through the south and have followed several of their recommendations, most recently using a feature on Savannah, Georgia as a guide in building my own trip itinerary.
Once I became a homeowner, the gardening and landscaping tips became a lifesaver, as I definitely was NOT born with a green thumb! From caring for herbs to creating an arrangement of perennials in the flower bed, Southern Living has helped me bring beauty to our home, both inside and out.
But most of all, my favorite aspect of the magazine, above all others is the food. Their recipes have never once let me down. In fact, many of them show up on my table over and over again, which is saying a lot coming from someone who always enjoys trying new things.
Unlike when I use recipes from other magazines, I’ve never had to tweak a dish to make it better, or ever felt the need for a “trial run” before serving to guests. With Southern Living, every dish I’ve made has been a hit, so it has become one of the most reliable sources I turn to for dinner inspiration!
If you love food and cooking magazines then I suggest you check out the current Southern Living magazine subscription deals going on at Magazines.com. And be sure to follow my culinary adventures on my blog at www.eat-drink-smile.com and on Twitter @betheats!
