Magnolia Journal (magazine)

   The theme from the Summer Library Program this year is "Imagine Your Story". I was thinking how a trip is similar to that, having recently gone on vacation with my husband to Waco, Texas (before Covid-19!), where we visited Magnolia SILOS, among other places, it was fun to imagine what it might be like to live somewhere else or be someone else.
   Now, I admire Joanna Gaines, but I fear I could never 'wear her shoes', because, oh my goodness, not only does she and here husband , Chip, have five children, they do a ton of other stuff as well.Starting off with the popular filming of Fixer Upper, which I really enjoyed, and now they have the businesses: Magnolia Marketplace, Magnolia Bakery Co., Magnolia Table, Little Shop on Bosque, and the online Magnolia Marketplace.
   Joanna also has gone into publishing some of her own books and creating the magazine Magnolia Journal. The magazines are really cool- if, like me, you like Joanna's style. So I have enjoyed reading many of the issues, because we do subscribe to it. So, CHECK IT OUT at your Pella Public Library.
