If Only We Lived In Canada... Do You??

Attention all Canadian resident readers of Roxiticus Desperate Housewives... this post is for you! As all of you know, Rex does most of the cooking in our family, and I would love to give him a kitchen makeover in our Bay Head, New Jersey beach house, where we are celebrating my birthday over the long Columbus Day weekend here in the United States... if I recall correctly, our Canadian friends are celebrating Thanksgiving. While my double chocolate sand castle birthday cake was in the oven, London, Maddie and I were just checking out the new Maple Leaf Market experience... we met the Butcher, the Baker and the Pasta Maker, and found some easy-to-make (even for Roxy), meal ideas. No matter where you live, you'll find useful tips, recipes, and coupons, but for Canadian residents only, they're giving away a $32,000 Dream Kitchen and twelve (12) Frigidaire® refrigerators to celebrate the launch of the new site.

Rex has owned our beach house for thirty years, and hasn't made many changes to it over time. He's been spoiled by all of the luxury appliances in our Roxiticus Valley kitchen, so if I were eligible to win this contest, I would give our beach house the kitchen of Rex's dreams: all new appliances, including a Viking stove and a huge fridge to keep a couple bottles of California Chardonnay and all of my summer ales cold. The other key element to our beach house kitchen makeover would be floors and cabinetry... we re-did the kitchen floor a couple of years ago, but due to structural requirements (our house is more than 100 years old) we didn't get the ceramic tile of our dreams.

Check out the Maple Leaf Market and, if you're lucky enough to be a Canadian resident,enter your email every day until December 15th, 2009, for your chance to win your dream kitchen!
