So Long Farwell

Another sad loss to the changing times of print. Since 1941 Gourmet has been lavishly compelling our pallets with beautiful, glossy food imagery on thick structured paper that enticed our senses and engaged us to go forth and do something extraordinary in our kitchen, or visit someplace far off and exotic and be indulged. Now Conde Nast has decided that Bon Appetit will have to do — produced on cheep paper and filled with advertisements from mass manufacturers. Well, they claim it's about the numbers and we the people apparently want Bon Appetit- I'll give it another try. But something has been lost-I love reaching,dreaming and being lured by beauty especially when it comes to food. Au revoir
