Toothpaste flavors
I’m pretty particular about most highly flavorful things, but toothpaste isn’t one of them. Crest has been the default brand in our house. It was the flavor, the toothpaste flavor. Aquafresh seems so sharp and aggressively mouthwash-medicinal but it soon became the default flavor of toothpaste in my mind. We’ve just gone back to Crest, and it tastes so sweet in comparison! Does anyone else notice this, or am I crazy?

Cookbook contest
Social media has changed the way companies do business. It’s also changing the way you can get a cookbook deal. If you have a Twitter account (or can sign up for one), you’ve got a shot. The Twitter-based contest will take place beginning Mar. 11. If you want to pitch an idea for a cookbook or culinary non-fiction idea in the areas of food, health or wellness, here’s your chance.

Dream kitchen
As a home cook, the kitchen is one of the most crucial rooms in my house. Rivaled only by a backyard big enough for a fire/pig/oyster-roasting pit, the right kitchen is easily the most important area of a house for me. If you were starting a kitchen from the ground up, what would make the kitchen yours? Join the discussion on the Food & More blog.
