If I showed you around my house today, you would find dozens and dozens of cookbooks stacked on my bookcases, kitchen shelves and side tables. I really treasure each and every one of them and have hand-picked them all individually, creating what I consider to be a pretty perfect cookbook collection!
Ancient Grains for Modern Meals is one of those great cookbooks you want to browse just before deciding what meals to make for the week. For anyone a little weary of cooking with whole grains … this is the book for you! Author Maria Speck gives readers useful tips to use whole grains in a variety of recipes, from savoury to sweet – and we’re giving away a copy!
To enter the contest: Leave a comment below and tell us which of the three following recipes from this cookbook you are most looking forward to trying. Read the rest of this entry »
What better way to celebrate this early sampling of summer weather than with a great giveaway?
Seeing as how everybody loved those great folding Muskoka chairs from PC Home, the folks at Loblaws and the Real Canadian Superstore have generously offered to give a lucky Style Sleuth reader the perfect complement: the PC Home Kettle Grill.
PC Everyday Essentials Portable Kettle Charcoal Grills, $30 each
Seriously – how cute are they? These diminutive little grills are perfectly portable alternative to lugging that huge barbecue up to the cottage, and make for a fantastic host gift if you’re spending the weekend at a friend’s summer retreat.
How to win one? Simply tell me (via the Comments section at the bottom of this entry) what you’re excited to grill up this summer. What’s your signature speciality when hosting a backyard BBQ? Are you a filet mignon fanatic, or do grilled asparagus spears get you salivating?
I’ll pick a winning entry on May 3rd. PC Home will ship the lucky winner his or her very own grill!
The runner-up will receive a copy of celebrated recipe developer Margaret Howard’s new barbecue bible from Firefly Books: “All Fired Up: 250 Fresh And Flavorful Grilling Recipes”!
Packed with drool-worthy grilling ideas, this hefty tome is sure to get you fired up for al fresco dining! (Sorry – couldn’t resist.)
Contest closes May 3, 2010 at 12pm EST. Open to all residents of Canada, except those in Quebec. Not open to any Transcontinental Media employees, their families, or any other persons with whom they reside.

One of the things I love about writing a blog is trying out new products and having the opportunity to share what I like about them. Want to know what I love even more? Being able to give those products away!
From now until the end of April, I’m giving away 3 Crest Oral-B “Power Your Smile” prize packs, which include the new Pulsonic electric toothbrush and other teeth cleaning goodies ($90 value per prize pack).
I’ve always been hesitant of electric toothbrushes because I find them to be quite rough on my sensitive teeth, but I am now a changed woman! I tried out the Pulsonic and not only did it have a ‘sensitive’ speed, but it also left my teeth feeling like I just got them polished at the dentist.
Here are some more neat features:
~ 27,000 gentle sonic vibrations per minute
~ features a 2-minute timer for recommended brushing time; 30 second intervals for each quadrant of your mouth
~ helps to whiten teeth in 2 weeks by getting rid of 94% of surface stains
Want to win one of these prize packs? All you have to do to enter is leave a comment below letting me know your favourite part of the Tech Style blog, whether it’s posts on pretty laptop cases, Tech-free Fridays, or giveaways like this one. I’ll pick the best 3 comments at the end of the month to determine the winners. Good luck!
*Contest closes April 30th, 2009. Open to all residents of Canada, except those in Quebec. Not open to any Transcontinental Media employees, their families, or any other persons with whom they reside.*
