Canada In A Nutshell (But Not Literally.)

Before a few minutes ago, here is everything I knew about Canada:

1. The superhero team "Alpha Flight" was from Canada, and had that cool guy with the suit that was kind of the Canadian Flag. Canada Man, I think he was called.

2. Something about hockey.

But now, I know a lot more about Canada, like, I wish my kitchen was there so that I could get a free $32,000 kitchen makeover.

I was looking for recipes this morning because I wanted to make Sweetie something nice for her birthday, and I came across this "Maple Leaf Market" website. I didn't know what it was, but it had headings like The Butcher, The Baker, and The Pasta Maker, and I'm a sucker for rhymes, so I checked it out.

It turns out that Maple Leaf Market produces meats and baked goods and pasta, and their site has a lot of helpful tips about how to buy and cook meats and some entertainment tips (like "Host a progressive dinner") and "Great Meals In Minutes," all very helpful stuff, but all of it paling in comparison to the $32,000 kitchen giveaway.

The contest requires only that you enter your email (you can enter again each day) and if your name is drawn, you get a $32,000 kitchen makeover: that's like a new kitchen, plus. Imagine what I could do with a brand-new $32,000 kitchen: Fancy countertops to eat my cereal on, new tile floors to spill my cereal on, great new cupboards to get out more cereal... the possibilities are endless.

Unfortunately for me, I am not a Canadian, and the contest is only open to Canadians (just like Alpha Flight!).

If you are Canadian, though, click that link above and enter yourself. If you're not Canadian, then let's all get together and wait until a Canadian wins, and then go to his or her house!
