The holiday season is fast approaching, and this issue's chock full of everything you need to have a successful holiday. Eight pages of homes from the 2024 Kappa Kappa Gamma Homes Tour are filled with ideas for Christmas decor. Our ace of hosts, Merrily Jackson, shares her tips for the best Thanksgiving shortcuts, including some clever feast-worthy finds. The colder weather is also a sign that warm, cozy comfort foods are on your list for dinner now, and food writer Jenny Vergara recommends the comforting dishes you don't have to cook because they're on the menu at a local eatery. There's also a fun Q&A with comic-book author Jason Aaron, one of the biggest names in modern comics, who wrote the revamp of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for its 40th anniversary. Departments and columns include home design; entertaining; expanded arts and culture coverage; dining out and dining in, including recipes and up-to-date info on KC's restaurant and bar scene.
