How to Cook Like a Top Chef
Chronicle Books ISBN 978-0-8118-7486-1
$34.95
Top Chef is the pick of the litter when it comes to reality TV. This colourful cookbook helps you to recreate and taste some of the show's most memorable dishes, and is a crash-course in techniques, ingredients, and the art of cooking on the fly.
It also includes recipes from some of the renowned chefs who competed on Top Chef: Masters, such as Hubert Keller and Rick Bayless. Bayless' Chile-Garlic shrimp is a winner!
Bear in Underwear
Todd Goldman
Blue Apple ISBN 9781609050160
$14.99
Not sure what it says about my maturity level, but this book makes me smile. Bear and his adorable forest friends (I have a soft spot for Porcupine and Big Foot) discover a bag full of underwear and try them on for size. Bear's undies on the cover are made of real fabric, which is guaranteed to get a laugh out of the target audience...and maybe those who fall outside of it, too.
Passions Book Journal
Moleskine ISBN 9788862933193
$26.00
It's the perfect marriage: Moleskine journals and literary obsessions. I love having a place to store my ever-growing lists of "What to read next," and "Books____ would like," as well having a journal tailored to collecting favourite quotes and documenting the lasting impressions that good books bring.
Chelsea Theriault is the Sales and Marketing Assistant at Raincoast, and can't imagine a life where she is not surrounded by books and pugs. Her secret weapon is colour-coded spreadsheets.

Chelsea there’s no shame in liking “The bear in underwear”.. it sounds adorable. Who would ever have thought of that idea for a book. Very cute. Top Chef is now on my list for Christmas presents to give. Thank you for the idea. I watch every episode and love to cook so perhaps one for myself as well!
