Helpful Articles

It's interesting to see how MAG has been improving with time. I recently came across the latest copy of your magazine and liked all that I saw. Especially the article “How to Avoid being a Harried Housewife” was after my own heart. I am a housewife and like the writer says it's an ungrateful job for sure. No matter how much you slog around the house the entire day, clean up after your kids and hubby, do all their chores yet there is no appreciation at the end of the day. And the worst part is when you are made to feel its part of being a married woman. The article was truly helpful especially the tips on how to maintain your sanity while being an efficient housewife. Keep it up guys!

Surprise, surprise

Hey, I have been an avid reader of Weekly MAG for the last few years but since the last few months I was completely out of touch as I was out of the country. I recently returned from London and was I surprised to see the changed look of MAG! Sure, it's interesting, the reading material, the contents are fun to read but one, where are the usual, up-to-date events/fashion show coverage, and two, where have your beautiful cover girls gone? The Bollywood inclusion is good, but I still miss a few things, as earlier mentioned, about MAG. Please think about it and try to work out a magazine with new stuff, retaining the old things!

Goblin Market

Morning and evening
Maids heard the goblins cry:
"Come buy our orchard fruits,
Come buy, come buy:
Apples and quinces,
Lemons and oranges,
Plump unpeck'd cherries,
Melons and raspberries,
Bloom-down-cheek'd peaches,
Swart-headed mulberries,
Wild free-born cranberries,
Crab-apples, dewberries,
Pine-apples, blackberries,
Apricots, strawberries; -
All ripe together
In summer weather...

-Christina Rosetti

The Lady of Shallot

On either side the river lie
Long fields of barley and of rye,
That clothe the wold and meet the sky;
And thro' the field the road runs by
To many-tower'd Camelot;
And up and down the people go,
Gazing where the lilies blow
Round an island there below,
The island of Shallot.

-Alfred Lord Tennyson
