Summer is fast approaching and the best way to beat the summer heat is to try some of the yummy cold desserts in town. I was able to try the newest addition to Kuya J's Halo-Halo variant which is the new "Duo Halo-Halo Espesyal". Last week, I went out with some friends for lunch at Kuya J Restaurant. It was my 4th time to dine in this homey restaurant that serves the best-tasting Filipino dishes. Some of the best dishes that they offer are Grilled Scallops which is one of my favorite to order everytime we dine here, not to mention their Crispy Pata, Kare-Kare, Sinigang, and their Danggit Rice which I really love.

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

We Filipinos love to eat and that is a fact, and we eat to our heart's delight, not thinking about how this can affect our health, including our environment. Most of the time it is really hard to resist the temptation, but it all goes down to discipline and eagerness to change for a healthier you. It’s about time to eat healthy, live healthy, and take control of your health!

The school year is about to end, like most of the kids, Chelsea is excited to start her vacation, she even told us about her plans for her vacation, seems funny but this is one way that we see how she tries to manage her time. And aside from playing outside with her scooter and friends, going to the beach, and visiting our relatives, we want her to have a meaningful and memorable vacation. Chelsea is really full of energy and ideas, aside from drawing, we allow her to do small chores at home and believe it or not, she also managed to grow few plants in her mini-garden. She also started to join fun-runs, which we enjoyed a lot as it serves as bonding time for us. During my younger years, I also wanted to have this kind of activities but time and opportunity forbid it, so this time I wanted my daughter to be exposed to different activities that will help her develop her mind and physical abilities. Aside from being active, eating is one of the things that she reall

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
