Philippine Market

I so missed this kind of fish. It's been a long time I have not eaten real fresh fish with head still on. The one that we buy here in America has been frozen for so long that it lost its sweet tasty juice.

This is how fish is sold in the market in the Philippines. They lay it all in an open counter so costumers can just pick the piece they want to buy. You can tell that the fish is still fresh because it would stand straight when you hold the fish upward, the scales are dark red with no foul smell in it. All these can only be seen ONLY IN THE PHILIPPINES!

Durable Cleaner For Our Grill

I am looking for a stainless steel cleaner use for cleaning our grill. I want something that is durable because the grill itself has some tough harden food and dried sauces in there. Using just ordinary sponge doesn't work or it wouldn't last long. Let me go ahead and search for that very stainless steel cleaner so I can purchase it. I really want to give it to my husband as soon as possible as there are already thick build-ups of food in his grill right now and he keep using it to cook our food. Although he cleans it before he uses, yet he doesn't remove all the old foods that cling in the grill.

Virgin A Big Problem?

I just grabbed this from my friend's album on FB. I thought this was weird. Why? Because why is it such a big problem in America if you are still a virgin? In the Philippines where I came from, being a virgin means you are chaste. Being virgin is a good thing. Keeping yourself intact for your future husband is like keeping a diamond in your pocket.

I am a woman who believes the most precious gift you can ever give to your spouse is your virginity and I solemnly swear I did it and it felt great! For that loser who left a nasty comment about having a one night stand with me in Cebu before, he was making fun of himself because the only person I had sex with in the Philippines was my husband.

I don't even remember leaving our house at night just to screw up some sex-hungry Westerners. I was always the traditional woman who believes sex is sacred and I just can't give it out to somebody I don't even know.

Vomiting And Diarrhea

I woke up in the middle of the night last night because I heard my husband was in the other bathroom throwing up a lot. It happened twice and I was wondering if he got sick due to the old corn he ate just before he went to bed? I asked him this morning what's going on with him, he told me that yeah, he is indeed sick but not because of the corn but probably because of the old pork meat that's been sitting in the refrigerator for so long.

He called in sick at work. I know he feels bad about it because he is not the type that would just call in sick. He feels weak he said so he did what he needed to do. If it was just a minor sickness, then it would be okay to go ahead and go to work. I feel sorry for him. Now he's in bed. I brought him rice porridge there and a capsule for his diarrhea, I hope he would eat it and take the medicine for I know he has nothing in his stomach right now.

Advertising Agency

No matter what sort of business you are going to venture in the future, you will need a proper advertising media for it so it will be known to the targeted consumers that your products or services exist. One of my friends I talked to online is planning of putting up her own small business on the internet. She loves fashion and cosmetics. I thought it was a good idea and I encouraged her to pursue her plan because not only it will keep her busy but also she learns to be independent and responsible with this.

An Advertising Agency cab greatly help once she is done building her online shop. As a friend, all I can do is help her find a reliable advertising agency that won't rip her off as well as exposing her merchandise all over the internet. I know a couple of women who love to look good, they love trendy and fashionable dresses I shall say.

I am really hoping that this friend of mine will do good and become successful in her plans because she got two kids to support and other nieces and nephews she is sending to school as well. She is a single mom by the way that is why I am sending her my all out support just to let her know that I am here willing to help her all the way.

Before I forget, this advertising agency that I am going to recommend to her has been helping thousands of clients from the past increase their site exposure and high sale profits. What they do is that they create a mixed media marketing experience by combining old and new media. THAT! Advertising Agency has built a team of highly skilled advertising specialists that focus on numerous industries (Advertising Services by Industry).

Looks Like Jadyn??

I have watched this beautiful video of a little girl named Amy Castle several times before, singing her original song way back 1994. The reason I am bringing this up it's because Darlene as I call her "Mamu" shared this to me on FB wall saying that the girl looked like my Jadyn. So I went to play the video again and I must agree, she is indeed has some features in her face that are somewhat the same of Jadyn's. If you have seen my baby girl's recent photos, can you compare them with this girl in the video. Do you agree with what my friend was saying?

Workout At Home

From the title of this entry I guess you have an idea that this is going to be about workout in the convenience of our own home. My husband and I are pro-workout people. Long before we met each other, my husband has been working out at the gym. It was him who influenced me to be fit. In fact, we have had gym membership for a year where we used to live.

And now that we own our own house and we got plenty of space to put our workout equipment very much the same of those that you see at Insanity Workout, we now do our workout at home. We got four different workout equipment in the back porch. Ah the convenience of having those equipment, not only it saves us money but there are other benefits we got from doing it at home. By doing so, we have ample privacy, we have the ability to play our own music, workout whenever we like, no gym membership fees.

Slowly we will be able to complete our exercise machines that would include the Turbo Fire in the long run. Another product that we would like to try is this P90X Workout or also referred to as PX90 by Tony Horton. It is a 3 month workout that features resistance training, yoga, kenpo, stretching and lots of cardio.

Fortunately I married a man who loves keeping fit otherwise I will be like a sagging-breasted cow just like everybody else here. No offense though but most white women I have seen around here after having their first child seems like they also lost their shape. They became fat, arms sagging, belly bulging and so and so forth. I don't want to offend anyone but I am a straightforward kind of person, I say what is in my mind, if it's right then I am not afraid to be confronted by it.

Typical Weekend

Ever wonder how we most spend our last day of our weekend here? Here's how it looks like, it's either we are out for grocery shopping, sending off Jadyn to the little gym, doing some house chores and most of all, the husband do his yard of course with his girl riding in a zero-turn mower of ours.

Whenever the daddy mows his yard and Jadyn hears the sound of the mower's engine running, rest assured that she'd like to go out too and ride with her daddy. It's just a simple gesture of my family that makes me happy deep inside for it creates solid bonding for both of them.

Majorca villas

So as I was saying in my other blog post, I received our electronic tickets yesterday as well as the itinerary. This would only mean one thing, we are so ready to fly now just waiting for that very day we most anticipated to come. Yahoooo I am so anxious to have a vacation in my hometown. I miss the people, the place, the beach, the food, the family, friends and relatives. I miss everything about my country so to speak. And for that I can no longer sleep well at night thinking that we are getting closer to be on the plane and see my beloved country.

Baby and I are going to have a two-month vacation. This of course includes short trips to my grandmothers' province. Another thing that excites me the most is the beach. Speaking of it, it makes my mind wonder soaking my delicate self in the seawater for long periods of time. And after an all-day adventure in the water stay at one of the villas there. Too bad though that Majorca villas aren't built there. They are only located in the UK area. Another option to stay in are the villas in Ibiza .

While it's good in the UK, tourists could just check out the villas themselves and see if they will love it there. Or they can try looking it up on the website first, find out the villas' offers, check out number of bedroom's availability. With over 1623 properties in total, guests, local tourists and visitors should have plenty of choices. Farmhouse, cottage, apartment, and villas accommodation in Mallorca for your holiday home rental the Balearic Islands.

Now back to my vacation, I am counting the days until the day we leave America and say hello to my native homeland. Can you tell I am that excited? I guess you can relate to me with how I feel if you have lived away from your family for years, right?

Christina Aguilera Splits From Husband

Amazing how celebrities can have a sudden change of heart. Why is that? They divorce or change their spouses just like changing clothes. I cannot stomach their liberated views towards marriage or relationships. One for example the latest couple that splits are Christina Aguilera and her husband Jordan Bratman. As quoted “They were very much in love,” explains the insider. “But over the last six months, it became clear they were more like friends than husband and wife.”

Though the pop star, 29, told UsMagazine.com less than a year ago that she felt “very blessed” in her union with music executive Jordan Bratman, 33, a source close to Aguilera tells Us the couple “have been separated for a few months.”

What a sad thing to know knowing that they too, have families to feed, bills to pay and other liabilities. In these times of crisis, investing in something is important. Furthermore, it isn't so bad buy to buy silver bullion and invest or just to keep it safe for the future? But the question is how can one buy the said bullion if they don't have the resources?

And as for the rest who can pretty well afford to buy silver or gold bullion, I know a place just perfect for you to buy them. You may click directly on the link above or visit www.usgoldbureau.com.

Our Family

Our family is simple. It consists of mommy (me), daddy, a little girl named Deden and a two-year old dog half Chihuahua named Chichai. We are simple but we are one small happy family. We make sure we find time to spend quality family time at the end of the day. During weekend, we manage to do something together just to remind each other that we are a family such as walking in the garden,  sending our baby girl to The Little Gym, grocery shopping together, doing yard work together and our usual night time routine is watch a movie together. Thank God for the family I have. They are awesome and I love them very much.

.......... mommy and baby taking a picture together near the conservatory entrance...this was taken last weekend...

.........and here's mommy and daddy on the bench at the rose garden....

...and here's baby and daddy taking a quick pose together before starting our long walk at the woods.

My Brother Is Getting Married

Everybody in the family is excited for my brother and his fiancee's big day. As of this moment they are still waiting on the papers needed for the wedding. I am pretty sure they are getting there and they could be wed probably next week. My family have gone to the girl's place in Danao City for "pamanhikan", a Filipino tradition wherein both families face together and talk about the wedding. It is also when the guy ask the girl's hands and blessings from her parents to marry their daughter.

Pretty sure, they are so busy right now looking at possible wedding bands and or

diamond wedding bands. If I were them I would be very anxious choosing which pair should best look in our hands. I hope my brother considered looking at engagement rings and gave Jen one. But it's okay too if she doesn't have one since Filipinos don't normally give their fiancees an engagement ring.

Furthermore, I feel bad about not being able to witness my brother's wedding. My flight is on the 23rd of next month so it's impossible that I can be at his big day. Also, I might not see him when I get there. He just can't wait for his niece to arrive before he would go abroad again. Sigh!

Nice Proposal

My Father-Inlaw left us his family albums that he compiled while he was still alive that contain a couple generations back. In fact, most of the people in the pictures aren't known to my husband. When I asked them who they are, he has no idea for the pictures alone look very very ancient. We got like 4 or 5 albums of it and we would like for other members of his family including cousins and other relatives to see them too.

Since we cannot send them all of it, we plan of just buying an all-in-one printer, scanner and fax machine so we can get this job done. The printer especially, we need a new and decent one. What we have right now is old but it still working. Aside from printing, it doesn't do anything other than that.

We should have no problem with the toner though as I know already where to buy it, it is at Brother toner on the internet that offers low great prices and good quality products. When we purchase in bulk in order to save us time and money in the future.

Idaho Murder

It saddened me when I hear someone of my race killed by their husbands or criminals in America. This woman was Filipino who was shoot twice at the back of her head by her estranged husband. She left her two kids behind with no mother to call for the rest of their life. So selfish of the father to do that to his kids eh!

I know I've posted this on my FB wall already but I'd like to share it here too for the sake of other people who haven't seen or heard the news.

State Fair Of Texas

So nice of my husband for bringing his family to the State Fair of Texas last Friday. It was me and my baby's first time to attend such grand event and we were happy.

For public's information here's what this all about. Of course lifted from its original source, Wikipedia.

The State Fair of Texas is an annual state fair held in Dallas, Texas (USA). The fair season usually begins the last Friday in September and ends 24 days later. The fair is held at the historic Fair Park where it has been held since 1886. The 2010 fair will be held from September 24 to October 17. Big Tex, a 52 ft (16 m) tall cowboy, has been the symbol of the fair since his introduction in 1952; in 1953, Big Tex's jaw was hinged, so that he appears to "speak" the announcements that promote fair events.[1]

The State Fair of Texas is the largest state fair in the United States by annual attendance. However, the Minnesota State Fair has a higher average daily attendance. The fair no longer tracks attendance by ticket sales — the numbers always underestimated attendance due to the practice of free entry for local schoolchildren and senior citizens on certain days — the fair's past estimates by various methods consistently suggested more than 3 million people visit the fair annually.[2] Its 212-foot (65 m) Texas Star Ferris wheel has been the largest in North America since it debuted in October 1985, just months before the Texas Sesquicentennial.[3][4] As of 2003, the fair's marketing director estimated that the fair was bringing about US$350 million dollars into the Dallas economy.

Dancing Flight Attendants

When flying in an airplane I don't normally pay attention to their safety/emergency demonstration, I felt it's boring. I don't even read the instructions located at the back of each seat. This video up here is a good tactic getting passengers' attention. They are quite entertaining, I must admit. This for sure have their eyes focused on what the crews are doing for all to be safety. Nice job, indeed.
