I grew up pouring over my neighbor's collection of Gourmet magazines. It seemed the key to a glamorous, delicious world where people ate sophisticated meals around tables laden with bounty, an alternate reality to mine...where I ate halting bites of ham loaf on a utilitarian formica table in the heart of the Midwest. Gourmet led me to cooking, cooking school, and a life as a food writer. Hope this means the world won't go back to ham loaf... Thanks for your splendid recollections. Miss Joyce

Yes, it is so sad. I grew up pouring over my neighbor’s collection of Gourmet magazines.

Thanks for your splendid recollections.

Civilization as we know it has somehow changed. My mother is the same age as Gourmet!...It's almost like a death in the family. No other magazine meets the standard. Do you think there is hope for a strictly on-line version of Gourmet?

Although I adore quick and fabulous weeknight meals, the rewards of a lovingly and carefully prepared meal cannot be overstated. The demise of Gourmet is so telling. Also, why can't I learn how to cook something delicious on the Food Network? Who wants to bake a cake that looks like an amusement park or a Disney character? What does that have to do with "food"? Fortunately we have many wonderful foodie friends, such as my friend Pam who treated us to a trip to see Julie and Julia followed by a day of cooking our way through ten courses from MTAOFC. And also our adventurous Gourmet Group which is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year! There is hope! PS Had the pleasure of dining at your table several years ago at Yosemite's Chef's Holidays. Have served your Braciolettini di maiale al ragu many times with much success. Thank you! I feel your pain.
