TaoTronics LED Multi-function Desk Lamp

My family and I have been using this LED Multifunction Desk Lamp from TaoTronics for a few days now, and I think this type of technology is something everyone will appreciate using on a regular basis. There are four lighting modes on this lamp: reading, studying, relaxing, and sleep time. We can also control five levels of brightness on this lamp by pressing the + or - button. There is also a 60 minute timer. This eco-friendly light provides a safe, comfortable, consistent light that stimulates concentration without eyestrain. I like that when we change the modes, it does not flicker so our eyes are not strained.

Stonefire Authentic Flatbreads

My family and I enjoy using Stonefire products often. I usually have the Stonefire Authentic Flatbreads available in the fridge, as it helps when I need to make quick meals. Stonefire Authentic Flatbreads are made with authentic and fresh ingredients. There are no artificial preservatives, colours, trans fats or hydrogenated oils, so we can leave it in the fridge for a week or store it in the freezer for up to 6 months and use.

All Hail King Julien Party

We had the pleasure of attending an advanced screening party to watch All Hail King Julien, and learn the steps to King Julien's dance and have fun King Julien style. We also bought the fun home as we celebrated watching the rest of the episodes at home with party hats, balloons, squawkers, and New Year's Eve glasses.

Cold winter nights are upon us, and what better way to spend an evening in, than with a good movie and some piping hot popcorn. Popcorn, Indiana is pleased to introduce Warm Your Corn Original Movie Theatre Popcorn. Simply make a tear in the bag where indicated, and place the ready-popped gourmet popcorn in the microwave to warm. In 50 seconds you will have piping hot, crunchy, fresh theatre-style popcorn at home.

Our Experience at the Espace Pour La Vie Montreal

During our stay in Montreal, we visited the Space for Life. We took the train from the hotel to this space, which was convenient than looking for parking and finding the location. I like that all the four attractions are close by, which makes it convenient to visit the attraction at the same time; especially because we went for a short visit.

TELUS encourages Canadians to enter Holiday Mode

This is the season for holiday parties, family dinners, and catching up with friends. But it’s pretty hard to catch up when everyone is glued to their phones. In fact, a TELUS survey this year found that Canadians are twice as likely to be on their phones around family and friends (82.6 per cent) than they are when at work (40.6 per cent).

CashTouch Plaid Scarf

I enjoy wearing scarves and always go for different colours that compliment my clothes. From the time I bought my first cashmere scarf in Singapore a few years ago, I always look for that special soft scarf that feels good against my skin. When I touched and felt the CashTouch Plaid Scarf in Macbeth Tartan from Lands' End, I instantly felt good about how soft and comfy it is. This super soft, lightweight, cashmere-like scarf is a perfect accessory for the cold Canadian winter.
