I still have a big stash of old knitting magazines though.<BR/><BR/>And tea is at its best flavor for only a year if that helps you. And there is no such thing as too much tea stash.Miahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08640308257305494076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32040200.post-1162962760239860172006-11-07T23:12:00.000-06:002006-11-07T23:12:00.000-06:00Thanks for the words of wisdom!

I'm still not sure what I'm going to do, but I'm definitely not keeping all of these back issues fully intact. <BR/><BR/>Many pages of Cooking Light are devoted to fitness tips, supper clubs, travel, etc., and those can easily be pitched, too.Jodihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15122120372734286698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32040200.post-1162949461187323912006-11-07T19:31:00.000-06:002006-11-07T19:31:00.000-06:00I know all about the hoarding problem, but I've ha...I know all about the hoarding problem, but I've had to tackle it in recent years since my life hasn't lent itself well to keeping things. I like the idea of getting rid of the ads. You could also get those clear sleeves and tear out recipes you'd like to make and keep all those in a binder. One of my friends marks the pages in magazines with those little post-its and labels it so she can find what she wants later. And let those super-organized people snicker! Some of us need our piles!<BR/><BR/>SPAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32040200.post-1162946729419354992006-11-07T18:45:00.000-06:002006-11-07T18:45:00.000-06:00At least your stashes seem pretty organized so tha...At least your stashes seem pretty organized so that helps. I'm the same way with the magazines though. Bon Appetit and Gourmet have a really great searchable website at epicurious.com too. But I still keep the holiday issues of those, they're so pretty and they're good for inspiration when I'm trying to plan those big family event meals.Janahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03964963643659738251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32040200.post-1162945804997276732006-11-07T18:30:00.000-06:002006-11-07T18:30:00.000-06:00That doesn't really look like too much tea to me! ...That doesn't really look like too much tea to me! Hot beverages are so important--you really need to have a selection on your hand. Something for every mood. :) Really, it all fits into one container so I don't see a problem. If you had less tea in the container, the container itself would still take up the same amount of space!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32040200.post-1162939626651562252006-11-07T16:47:00.000-06:002006-11-07T16:47:00.000-06:00I have an idea!!I am the same way with magazines. ...I have an idea!!<BR/><BR/>I am the same way with magazines. I just cannot bear to throw them out. What I do now is when I first flip through them, I tear out every page that is ads on both sides. Not only does it make the magazine considerably lighter/thinner, it makes it much easier to read because you aren't paging through 6-8 pages worth of sections of ads only! <BR/><BR/>Plus I only started doing this a few months ago, and I'm going through back issues to do the same. Which means I'm coming across old recipes that look good or that I didn't notice before.Karinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10964061536229753125noreply@blogger.com
