Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.

In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!

My question is:

If you could write for any magazine, which one would it be?

  1. I think I would like to write for Parents – I love that magazine and they seem like fun people who talk about things I can relate too.

  2. I’d love to write for Conde Nast Travel–only if they sent me on some fantastic trips to review!

  3. I would probably pick one of the Scholastic teacher magazines. I always loved reading them when I was in the classroom and it looks like a lot of fun.

  4. Jennifer says:

    I would love to write for The Smithsonian or National Geographic.

  5. Valerie says:

    I would have to make up my own magazine and call it Grammy’s World. lol Are there even any grandparents’ or empty nester magazines out there?

  6. I would write for my favorite magazines, Coastal Living & Real Simple.
    Of course I’d have to live in a lovely home somewhere on the coast with the sound of the ocean waking me every morning and my life would have to be totally organized and simple!!

  7. Amy O'Neal says:

    Vouge (sp?) I think its very classy!

  8. Swoozie says:

    If I could write for my favorite magazine……..it would have to be for Vogue. Srsly. That magazine is SO over-the-top that I think it would be quite a kick to throw some of my own articles in it. Maybe in my next life…..

  9. Great question! I would love to write for Real Simple, Marie Claire or Oprah! :-)

  17. Angela says:

    I would love to write for Food & Wine! I’m not a talented enough cook though. :)

  18. never really thought about writing for anyone but myself, but as i sit her thinking about it, i think it would be cool to write for a youth ministry magazine or for parents of teenagers. that would put my 10 years of experience in that area to good use.

    hope you’re feeling well and able to get things accomplished around your place. have a good weekend.

  19. Abby says:

  24. Em Dy says:

    A travel magazine most definitely as it would give me a chance to talk about trips, hotels, food and take photos too. In short, doing all the things I love at somebody else’s expense. Ha ha!

  25. Jerry Callow says:
