Ami but
1) their stories are highly embellished versions of things that could’ve happened…
2) their tables capes and recipes are out of touch with a busy mother. More in touch with stay at home heiress with multiple butlers at her beck and call.
3) expensive
But I it for now as I view it like a nosh. Not healthy and not for always but enjoyable for the moment.

Binah
Thought out and relatable, with substance!

Ami is a bit jarring the type of articles I don’t want my kids to read

I wish there were more good reading material available

Mishpacha hands down, intelligent and well written articles.
The Ami is fluff, the question is really what you would enjoy more.

I want articles about Jewish life (not political and not with a ton of articles about the war), be nice if it had daily living type stuff, recipes, not a million ads for shops in NY that I can't get to, about raising children, being religious...I don't know what is even in these magazines as I haven't read any of them in YEARS.

Each publication has their pros and cons.

I love the Ami business section.

But I like the mishpacha family first better.

Fact is though, I can't really afford either. And don't have time to sit down and read over shabbas.

I love Mishpacha Family First. I start reading from the back in the main magazine!! I find it has a variety of family oriented intelligent articles. From Parsha by Faigy Peretzman, Life by Sarah Chana Radcliff, excellent serials. And who can forget THE KICHELS? It is my Shabbos pleasure.
