Glossy RIP

I’m sure most of you won’t be surprised to know that after a glass of prosecco (or maybe even without one) I have declared that Cookie’s need to be so relentlessly upscale annoying. What is surprising is that that Conde Nast is shuttering the mag along with—real stab to the heart—Gourmet. When I worked at Self we shared a floor with them and I always thought its where I’d work in my 50s. They also closed Modern and Elegant Bride which also seems shocking because what bride-to-be doesn’t make a habit of tearing out wedding dress ads? I mean that’s one of the best parts of being engaged? Can you tell I’ve been married for almost 12 years?

This one by one death of things/people I thought were interesting must be what it feels like when you are really very old.

    was so OVER Cookie a while ago. did every ad/photo spread have to include $200+ sweaters for toddlers?! still upset about Wondertime. they had the best features! they better not go near my Real Simple. was very surprised though about Gourmet. weird. you are def right about getting older…
