I WILL be renewing my subscription to Bon Appetit!

I have a subscription to Bon Appetit magazine.  Every month it comes in my mailbox wrapped in plastic, covered with a 8.5x11 subscription card.  So I don't see the cover until I free it from the plastic casing and take out the subscription card.  I received my March issue of Bon Appetit yesterday, but I didn't liberate it from its plastic prison until just a few minutes ago - and I think I had a foodgasm:
This picture actually doesn't do it justice.  You have to have a copy of the magazine in your hands to really appreciate the physiological reaction I had as soon as I laid eyes on the cover.  I am not exaggerating or being figurative when I say that my mouth is watering.  It literally is.  And I honestly felt like I could physically grab that fork out of the picture and start devouring that bowl of mac & cheese in one sitting.

Must. Make. Mac. And. Cheese. For. Dinner.

  4. That is an awesome shot! I was a managing editor of a magazine for a long time, and all I can say is, sometimes the photographer -- and the food stylist -- just nails it. I'd be tempted to eat the cover :-)

    Here's a review of the book Unlovable (that has a pug in it) where I feature a picture of my two pugs:

  6. I am a magazine-aholic...the food ones are some of my favorites. Bon Appetit does do a really nice job with their covers on a regular basis :)

  7. That certainly is a delicious looking cover. That's one of the things I like about my Eating Well magazines, scrumptious cover shots.
