Quick Cooking, I can't pass up This Offer!
Written: Aug 14 '01
Pros:Quick & easy recipes, great pictures, no ads.
Cons:A little expensive
The Bottom Line: Great magazine, Worth the money. I like the fact the recipes are submitted by readers just like me.
I did not order this magazine. Quick Cooking was sent to me,as an Exclusive Notification. This Quick Cooking magazine is a collector's Edition. The magazine is priced at $3.99 and, is put out by Taste of Home's.
Taste of Home's is offering me 2 years of Quick Cooking for only $19.96. Thats 58% off the cover price and, free Postage & handling. It is the gauranteed lowest rate on America's #1 magazine for busy cooks. Plus, there's absolutely no risk! My subscription to Quick Cooking is covered by a rock soild 100% money-Back Gauarantee. If I'm not completely delighted, they will return every penny I paid!"Whew", with all that part outta the way, onto the fun part. The magazine itself.
As I have already mentioned, I did'nt order this magazine, it was a pleasant surprise in my mailbox. I really love to cook and, I'm always on the lookout for new recipes. I took a quick look through it and, knew that I needed absolute quite time, to pour over the pages undisturbed. I could'nt wait. The baby was finially in bed and, all was quite. It was worth the wait. I found Quick Cooking to be very good. There are 67 pages and, covers many topics. There are 123 recipes in this collector's Edition and, all the recipes are submitted by the readers.
