Unless you have been living under a rock, you are probably quite familiar with the magazine, Better Homes and Gardens. After all, Better Homes and Gardens is the fourth most popular selling magazine in all of the United States! The incredibly popular magazine focuses on interests regarding homes, cooking, gardening, crafts, healthy living, decorating, and entertaining.
The magazine was founded in 1922 and is published once a month by the Meredith Corporation. The Meredith Corporation publishes a number of books on home economics and gardening under the BH&G brand, the best known of which is the Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book, colloquially known as the “Red Plaid” book. Now in its 15th edition (published in August 2010), the Red Plaid was originally published in 1930. Meredith also publishes the New Junior Cookbook for children learning to cook.
This is truly one of the best magazines out there for finding ideas on all home and garden projects!
