As Sweet as Leche Flan

Wow! Look at that! Isn't it mouth-watering? Leche Flan is one of my favorite desserts. It's been a while that i haven't had a bite. I was supposed to order one yesterday since it's our Patronal Fiesta here in the Subdivision but Mom doesn't want me to. There's already a bunch of food in the table and she thinks it's more than enough. Well, next time. Wait for me Leche Flan and i'll get yeah! Hehe.

Teas that Bloom: A Unique Mother's Day Gift

Mother’s day is just around the corner. Perhaps all of us are already thinking of a gift to give our moms. Giving our mother a special gift is just one way of showing our love and appreciation for the beautiful life she had given us and the sacrifices she had gone through just to put us where we are now. Our mother is simply the best and she definitely should have a special gift she greatly deserves. I have been thinking of a gift that is unique which she would surely love and remember for the rest of her life.

Recently, I’ve discovered these Artisan Teas from FullBloomTea.com. Aside from the fact that my mom is a tea drinker, the sight wherein the tea blooms into floral bouquets when soaked in previously boiled water will fascinate her for sure. I was fascinated myself. It is such an amazing view. And these teas come along in a glassware such as a large teapot and with matching two large tea cups, very nice gift set. I truly believe my mom will love this. This is just the right gift that she truly deserves - a beautiful tea gift set for a beautiful mom on Mother’s Day.

Tuna Sashimi

Let's go Japanese this time. I'm not a Japanese food person though. This is the only raw food that i eat and is addicted to. We usually have this whenever we have parties here at home. We dip it in Wasabi mixed with Kikkoman soy sauce and that's it. Yummy! Our city being the Tuna Capital of the Philippines, so we get to have Tuna anytime, anywhere at reasonable prices. Have you tried this one? Try it and you'll surely love it.

I love Pizza!

Whenever i am out with this friend of mine, no doubt our first destination at the mall would be Greenwich because we both love pasta and pizza. It's either we will order lasagna, pizza or spaghetti. We got the chance to bond again this afternoon and as expected, Greenwich is where we went first. As usual we ordered pizza and spaghetti. It has been a while since i got a bite. Glad i had one again earlier. Yummy!

Tips to Make Your Time in the Kitchen as Easy as Possible

1) If a soup or stew is too salty, add raw potato chunks. Discard them after they have cooked - they will have absorbed the salt.
2) Can't remember if an egg is fresh or hard-boiled? Just spin the egg. If it wobbles, it's raw. If it spins easily, it's hard-boiled.
3) To avoid crying while peeling onions, peel them under cold water.
4) To perk up soggy lettuce, add lemon juice to a bowl of cold water and soak lettuce for an hour in the refrigerator.
5) When cooking carrots, peas, or corn, add a small amount of sugar to the water to keep the flavor.
6) To keep sweet corn yellow, add one teaspoon of lemon juice to the cooking water just about a minute before turning off the stove. Also, never salt the water you cook corn in. It will toughen the corn.

We all know how bad smoking is for us. People who were addicted to such perhaps doesn't love themselves. Second-hand smoke is also bad that's why i stay out of it as much as possible. My brother smokes and i really hate it. He'd been told many times to get it out of his system but to no avail. I don't know when he'll stop. Hopefully soon enough...

Seven Simple Guidelines for Eating Well

1) Eat a variety of foods to get all the nutrients you need.
2) Balance the food you eat with physical activity. Combining physical activity with a healthy diet is the best way to maintain a healthy body weight.
3) Include plenty of grain products, vegetables, and fruits in your diet. These foods provide vitamins, minerals and fiber, as well as other non-nutrients that may protect you against cancer, heart disease, and high blood pressure.
4) Choose a diet low in fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol to reduce you risk for heart disease, cancer, and high blood pressure.
5) Limit sugars in your diet. Added sugars have no other nutrients, and when consumed in excess, they crowd healthier foods out of your diet.
6) If you are salt-sensitive, moderate salt (sodium) in your diet to help reduce your risk of high blood pressure.
7) If you drink alcoholic beverages, do so in moderation. Alcohol supplies calories but few or no nutrients. Drinking alcohol is the cause of many health problems and accidents and can lead to addiction. Moderate alcohol consumption is defined as no more than 2 drinks a day for men and no more than 1 drink a day for women. Women who are pregnant or trying to become pregnant should avoid alcoholic beverages altogether.

Bad Credit Loans and Credit Cards

The convenience of having credit cards is I think the reason why most people opted to have one nowadays. But bad credit credit cards have been a problem for some. This is mainly due to spending too much and not using their credit cards wisely. Good thing there are people who are willing to help through bad credit loans. People with bad credits will be given another chance to rebuild their credit cards. Isn’t this a good news? If you are one of those who are having a bad credit, then your problem is solved.

Sometimes

Sometimes I want to let the hands of the clock be stopped everytime i am happy. I want to hide the hour glass just to make myself believe that moments would not end. But i never did such, for i realized, there are also those who wanted the hands of the clock move. For every strike of it would mean a little recovery from pains for those who had bad memories in the past and wishes that the hands of the clock will tick faster...
