Yesterday was magazine-binge day. I was at the supermarket and, just as they plan it, I found myself reaching for the magazines positioned at the checkout as I waited my turn.
I came home with Woman's Day, which is becoming trashier, but did have a budget living insert. Also, Healthy Food, which is a terrific little magazine written by a staff of dietitians, and Women's Health.
Women's Health has some great articles about food and fitness. There was a good weight training plan in there, with some exercises that would be a good supplement to what I do already. Light weight training is becoming important to me as I'm just over 5' 3" and don't want to get any shorter as I age.
What I didn't notice until perusing the magazine more closely once home was the article on what they call adult toys. I was a bit taken aback, but then again the magazine is probably aimed at, and certainly written by, much younger women.
Do they include articles like that, which appeared to be quite breezy and factual, to capture attention, or are most younger women much more open about such things?
