The Kitchen Mom by dhess

  There are several kitchenware that’s being sold in the market, one of which is the Dutch oven. It is a pot made up of different materials—it can be ceramic, aluminum, stainless steel, or the most common, cast iron. Those that are made up of cast iron are heavier than our average pots, but the bright side to this is that cast irons are capable of holding onto more heat and are good at spreading the heat evenly. This, by itself, is already very advantageous. To put it simply, Dutch ovens are one of the most versatile cooking pots in the market, and we’ll prove it to you in this article where AllHome will be sharing with you the benefits of having a Dutch oven in your home by looking at the different methods of cooking you can do with just one Dutch oven. Frying   Fried chicken and lechon kawali are two examples of deep fried foods that can cause so much oil splatters, but we’d endure that because deep fried foods are one of the best foods in the world. Thankfully, with the tallness and

Just when you thought Sarah Geronimo can do it all, she reveals that she has also learned how to cook. Speaking at the launch of Phoenix SUPER LPG, the Popstar Royalty shared that although it took her a while, she really wanted to learn how to whip up culinary hits in the kitchen. “Ginusto ko po talagang matutong magluto. Parang ang sarap kasi sa pakiramdam na kaya mong ipagluto ‘yung pamilya mo and mga friends mo (I really wanted to learn how to cook. It feels good to be able to cook for your family and friends),” shared Sarah. Having discovered the joys of cooking, Sarah took culinary classes to further her newfound passion. She started with little experiments--from whipping eggs correctly, to cooking simple dishes.

Lenten Season is just a few weeks away, and most of us will enjoy our most awaited vacation by going to the beach, or to the provinces and visiting relatives long missed. With this being said, we end up leaving our homes with no one to look after, most of us rely on our ever trusty guard dogs or CCTV's installed hoping this will serve as a deterrent to anyone who will try to break in our homes. With all the things that is happening in our society today, it's better to be safe than sorry, gearing up your home against any unwanted visitors, or preventing any dangers from escalating is a must,. Your home should be safe. It should feel like your own personal refuge, a private sanctuary where you and your family can feel most secure and most worry-free. The demand for home security has always been a top priority for most of us, ensuring the safety of our family from any harm, in the Philippines, just like in many countries, feeling safe within the confines of ones’ home

I started working in the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) Industry way back 2007. Being a college undergraduate, I had to support my family and BPO had been my only hope. I worked as a Senior Account Representative in one of the biggest telecommunication company here in the Philippines but the income will not suffice my family’s daily needs. I must say that BPO had been a great help for me and my family. Working in a BPO will definitely help you financially. In return, you will have a lot to sacrifice. You will have sleep deprivation since you will be working at night most of the time (graveyard shifts). You will not even notice the date, as most of the accounts you will be working for have different time zones. You will turn to foods, (comfort foods) when you are burned and stressed out. You will have less and less time to exercise. As a result, many call center employees are obese. Common Health Risk  Obesity Diabetes Carpal Tunnel  Syndrome  Bone Loss Ulcer Anem

School year is about to end, so aside from the long awaited vacation of our kids, we as parents always wanted to make sure that our kids will have a meaningful summer vacation. When I was a kid I remember freely running in our backyard and playing with other kids and that is where I develop my social skills and exercise my sportsmanship in different games that we played. The entire duration of my vacation during my childhood were spent in playing with friends outdoor, household chores, visiting my cousins or relatives who lived far from us and ofcourse watch my grandmother cook our favorite dishes for me to learn her craft. Generation may pass but kids nowadays still need to develop their skills, hobbies, socialize and enhance whatever talent they may have, so aside from going to the beach or spending the whole day in front of the computer it would help if we introduce our kids in other activities that they can unleash their hidden talents and at the same time help them improve
