: Food Friday

This is the yummy Buffalo Wings in Don Henricos

It's one of my favorites in this restaurant, sad that their branch just a few blocks from our office closed down when the Eastwood Chain of Restaurants in Libis boomed. I remember when I was still pregnant with my youngest child I used to eat there at lunch because the meat is so tender, perfectly flavored and has a white sauce that makes it more delicious! When my office friends were busy to accompany me our office messenger would offer to buy for us, he'll just walk a few meters and we'll have buffalo wings for lunch!

Happy Friday and enjoy your weekend with your loved ones;)

Losing Excess Fat

It’s very easy to gain weight but very hard to lose it. Sometimes I observed that if you gain a pound you’ll only lose half of it when you diet. Well the best diet plan should be coupled also with the best discipline. My officemate keep on telling us that one should schedule at least an hour of exercise to keep your adrenalin going and to shed unwanted pounds, it’s one of the best slimming strategy and very good for the body. Next thing is balanced diet meaning you eat the right kind of food.

If you look on the chart of balanced nutrition you’ll see the pyramid that people should eat more on the Glow foods, average on Grow Foods and less on the Go Foods. If all these failed to give you your desired weight maybe you should start looking for best fat burners to help you burn excess fat, restore your energy levels and keep you on your best physique condition.

Vacation Plans

My sis and I have been planning early our summer getaway and we’re eyeing the land of my husband’s parents, the beautiful beaches in Samar. My in-laws were always there twice a year to check on their house and to have a vacation as well.

Their house is just a few meters away from the white sand beach so it’s very convenient to spend vacation in their place. Best thing of all is that the beach there is free. It wasn’t operated by anyone so everybody can have fun without cost. Of course we would also love going to faraway place other than Samar. There are lots of beautiful places here and abroad. I would also love to book for an Outer Banks rentals in the future. We all love travel and vacation.

New Tax Guidelines

Now that BIR has already finalized their guidelines about the new tax computations we’re now implementing it to our system. We’ve adjusted our payroll now and I was glad to see that this increase in tax exemptions will help many people especially minimum wage earners which will be tax-free. If you must know an ordinary employee earning minimum wage will be receiving their salary full and those who earns a little above minimum will only have very minimal amount of tax – a hundred or so depending on their dependents. I must thank the people behind this new law regarding tax.

Every time I see this picture I missed my office friends here especially Jaz who's now in Abu Dhabi and Jhing who started a new life in Pangasinan province. Flor is the only one here who still works in BT&T aside from me. We've shared happy moments together despite experiencing pressures from work.

Zenni Optical was on FOX News!

If you would ask me what’s the most important thing I would bring when I go out of the house I would say my eyeglasses. I’ve been wearing eyeglasses since my college days and it has been my constant companion. I’m more comfortable with eye glasses the reason why I never tried contact lenses. For style and prices I always browse online for Variable Dimension Frames From Zenni. They offer wide variety of stylish eyeglasses at a price you can afford, very economical for mothers like me.

Now I’ve seen Zenni on Fox and watched how the reporter was looking into this whether it’s true that they sell Great Eyeglasses For Less. Imagine you can have 20-20 vision at about $20 or even less. I realized now that many people will know about this great deal about prescription glasses because Zenni Optical was on FOX news! You see people like to buy or use things that they see or heard on news, nice advertising too!

Yen's Questions of the Week #38

Join us at YQOTW.

1. Are you living in a fantasy world all your own? I don't have time for fantasy world, actually sometimes when I'm watching fiction movies.

2. You’re sitting on a small rock with your 5,6,7,8 years old child in your lap, watching the blue sea together, what would you talk about?

We'll talk about all the beautiful things that God made and the wonderful love God has for us.

3. If you have all the time in the world, what would you change about your life? I'll have more time with my kids, I want to see all little changes in their lives from being a baby to a toddler to little boy/girl up to the time that they've grown enough. The things that we cannot go back to if the time passed already. If they're old enough they will spend less time with me so now I want to enjoy their childhood.

4. What is the best thing that ever happened to you this past week? I had a nice time with my kids, they were on semestral break so we didn't rushed during our breakfast. Breakfast in our house are usually the happiest meal because we're together.

5. I seldom go out without eyeglasses in my eyes.
6. Is there something you will never do? Oh yeah, i'll never do drugs

7. Naughty or nice…which have you been this year? Nice most of the time, sometimes naughty but secretly :-)

8. How self-conscious are you? 5 points out of 10

9. Do you think photos of you capture your essence? No I don't look good in pictures but I feel good most of the times, I'm always happy and vibrant but in my pictures I sometimes look haggard because of my eyes.

10. When I get angry, I never said a thing contrary to my outgoing personality who always talk and tell stories. I have a temper so when I get mad I prefer to keep silent or else I might do something that I will regret! I always pray to God to balance my temper at all times and the best solution for me is to keep silent, pray and rest for a while.
