Holiday 2019 Issue
In our Holiday 2019 issue with cover model Autumn Reeser, you’ll find everything you need to enjoy a season where all is calm and all is bright. This issue is packed with festive ideas to bring fun and meaning to your family this winter.
And if you’re ready to lighten the load when it comes to the pressures we put on ourselves, be sure to read our interview with actor, mom of two, and nature enthusiast Autumn Reeser. You can’t help but smile at the gorgeous images of Autumn with her boys by photographer Paul Von Rieter.
There’s no shortage of activities to attend, crafts to make, gifts to buy, and goodies to bake this time of year. With this impending overwhelm in mind, our team decided that instead of a To-Do list, a Don’t-Do list felt more fitting this year. This list gives you permission to stop doing things like comparing your holidays to others, trying to do everything yourself, or going into debt to make the holidays special.
Other standouts from this issue are Kris Bordessa’s ideas for turning baking into a fun learning experience for kids, Peggy O’Mara’s article on giving back, our annual eco holiday gift guide, and the adorable mini cranberry pies in our Conscious Kitchen section.
As always, we’re excited to share our favorite healthy, family-friendly recipes and introduce you to the best new green and healthy products. Let us know what you think of the Winter 2019 issue via email or social media.
