Kiss me, I'm....Greek?

Okay, I admit it. I'm prostituting my blog for a contest entries...FIVE contest entries, actually. I subscribe to an e-newsletter called "Can I Get the Recipe" and they are giving away what looks like an amazing Greek cookbook called "How to Roast a Lamb". If I post about this contest, the website and the review of the book, I get FIVE additional entries to the contest. Sign me up!

I've been looking for Greek cookbook that I can one day surprise my honey with an amazing Greek dinner, and there it was...waiting for me to enter the contest to win it! Plus, I don't have a problem endorsing something that has served me well -
Can I Get the Recipe (also see the button on the sidebar of this blog) is a great little website a friend told me about and after looking it over, I signed up for the newsletter right away. I am a self-professed recipe junkie, and while like most recipe junkies I probably don't actually cook at least 75% of the recipes I have, I still love to have them. And these are actually useful, down to earth recipes - ingredients can be purchased at your local grocery store, and dishes can be easily prepared, you don't have to be Jamie Oliver to make them. The recipes I have made from this site have been easy and delicious!

My only wish for this website is a better search feature - I just tried to find my favourite recipe that I have made (pork chops with apple cranberry compote) and couldn't find it to link to it here. :(

Now, I hope I win this cookbook so I can make dinner for my amour in our new kitchen! Yes, that's right folks, the Vancouverite is making the move to the Great White North. We've found a great new apartment, and I look forward to reporting more from E-Town soon!

  1. Hi Regan!
    Thanks for mentioning our site to your readers! And yes, since we changed over our site name form Dionnervibe to Can I get theRecipe? we've had some kinks trying to figure out the search aspect. But not fear! You can always visit the "Recipes" tab and all the past recipes are archived. Just scroll and search. Many readers have also taken advantage of the printable recipes. Just click "Print This Recipe" under the recipe itself and throw in a Can I get the Recipe?" binder. Thanks again for entering our contest! Good luck!
