Am I Overthinking This? by Michelle Rial (Chronicle Books)

Am I Overthinking This? by Michelle Rial (Chronicle Books)

October | a final thought

A cartoon from our back cover to cheer your day

We’re seeing off our October issue today. All the pumpkins, spooky stories, toffee apples and tea have made us feel properly autumnal. We hope you’ve enjoyed it, too. Our November ‘Cosy’ issue will be snuggling up on supermarket shelves this week so do pop out and buy a copy.

Meanwhile, please enjoy this cartoon from our October back cover.

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
