Bistros are remarkable in that they somehow manage to be both fancy and casual at the same time, much like a necktie with Taz on it. Feel gussied up without too much fuss with today's Groupon to Red Canoe Bistro in Burlington. Choose between the following options:
- For $20, you get $40 worth of modern bistro fare for dinner.
- For $10, you get $20 worth of modern bistro fare for lunch.
Red Canoe Bistro's chef, Tobias Pohl-Weary, dices locally grown onions and grills grass-fed beef when crafting the modern lunch and dinner he described in the Burlington Post as inspired by the "flavours from India, Asia, Europe and Italy." For dinner, blue benedict and pumpkin-seed stuffing packs into roast chicken ($26). Diners can cut through the maple glaze that coats naturally raised beef rib eye ($36) or plunge their forks into flash seared big-eye tuna ($31) served with potato succotash and veggies haggled for at local farmers' markets. The kitchen creates lunch fare weekdays from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m, using three-year-old cheeses to craft gooey mac 'n' cheese ($13) and brewing up chuck-steak chili ($14) with local habanero chilies. The culinary savants change their recipes to accommodate vegans, allergies, and specialty diets upon request. Like a slow-motion ballerina, the eatery's menu rotates seasonally.

The Groupon Guide to: Motivational Mottos
Whether you're feeling so low that you're down in the dumps or feeling so sensational that you're up in the dumps, you'll feel better after repeating a motivational mantra to yourself. Seek success with these proven maxims:
• "Go for the gold!"
• "Live your best life!"
• "Is that gold from earlier making, like, a 'whirring' noise?"
• "Be the change you want to see!"
• "Dang! That gold is hot to the touch … just like I should be."
• "Everyone who looks at the gold starts bleeding. We have to get rid of it."
• "The pawn-shop owner's dog hissed at the gold and when the owner screamed at us, I noticed his mouth had 100 teeth in it."
• "I told the police, 'The gold burned down my house! It was the gold!' but they wouldn't listen!"
• "Is this what you wanted, gold? To see me reduced to nothing?"
• "I buried the gold in cement at a construction zone, but didn't notice the sign reading 'Future Site of The Centre for Hubris Studies.'"
• "Settle for silver."
