Popular American Game Show ‘Wipeout’ Coming to Canada

The words ‘big balls' may seem offensive to some people, but for viewers of "Wipeout," it's just one of the obstacles contestants must overcome to win a $50,000 prize as part of the challenging course.

The popular U.S. game show is coming to Canada and the search is underway to find worthy contestants.

Safe Grilling Tips

 

Let It Warm Up: Meat should be at room temperature before you cook it. Leave it out 30 to 60 minutes.

Get it hot! Preheat your grill 15 to 25 minutes before you start cooking to make sure it reaches the right temperature (and to kill any bacteria). Your grill should be 400-450°F for high, 350-400°F for medium-high, 300-350°F for medium and 250-300°F for low heat. A properly heated grill sears foods on contact, keeps the insides moist and helps prevent sticking. While searing doesn't "seal in" the juices (contrary to popular belief ), it does create improved flavors through caramelization. 

It's time to Party

The Perfect Mother’s Day

 

Moms have revealed what they really want for Mother's Day - a day without seeing their children.  A day off without the family came joint top in a new survey which asked 500 moms what they most wanted for a Mother's Day treat.  It was the choice of 22% of those polled - although just as many said they would most like a bunch of flowers.  Other popular choices included a card (chosen by 19%), chocolate (14%) and perfume (12%), while just 11% said they wanted to spend more time with the children.
