Yummy....yummy and yummy

For those of us who truly miss Pinoy food and want to learn how to do them....our savior is now in the internet. Just log on to yummy.ph

You will just love the "simple to follow" recipes. Get to know where to shop for food in Manila, what are the restaurants to try, and discover the great Pinoy chefs and their specialties.

Lots to learn in their how-to make videos, tools, blogs and finds. Join the forums too.

I love the magazine. I will learn to love the website beginning today :-)

Hope you do too!

maypasokba.com

With the storm SANTI threatening today, I found my nephew wondering if he had classes today (Yes, he has Saturday classes).

He didn't wait for a response, instead, asked to use my husband's computer. Wondering why, I followed him and saw him logged on to a unique website:  http://maypasokba.com.

I found it such a practical website. He has told me that in all the times he logged in, the accuracy of the response was 100% correct. I have yet to find out who thought of this great idea but congratulations to him. I just wish he would create the forum for each school or company so that it would be easier to find out the info you want.

Yes, it is inviting school and company authorities to contribute  the info fastest way possible whether there is work at a certain  office or there are classes in a specific school.

Galing ng Pinoy di ba?

The very funny JON SANTOS



This is a must see for every Filipino who loves to see all the famous Pinoy characters in politics and showbiz!

It's been running since September 2009 with all tickets sold-out!

Find out and enjoy!


The SHOW:

Kuring, Gluring, Syerrap at Dyuning "Election is Nearing"  (For Voter or for Worse)


Election fever is clearly in the air, and with it comes the motley crew of presidential hopefuls slugging it out in the open with an endless tirade of promises, brickbats and political rhetoric.

Jon unveils an even more exciting tapestry of new and familiar characters in Kuring, Gluring, Syerrap at Dyuning: Election is Nearing (For Voter or for Worse), to be held at the Teatrino (Greenhills Promenade).


Still another endearing character is `Mommy Dyuning.` Another star-in-the-making, the pleasantly candid ‘mother figure` has been getting her fair share of the limelight lately, what with the slew of commercial endorsements and movie offers coming her way.

DATES: November 6, 13, 20  & 21, 2009

VENUE: Teatrino Promenade in the Greenhills Shopping Center, San Juan. Show

TIME: Show starts at 8:30pm.

Bio Research's LOST EDEN in the South of Manila

It's actually a 4-hectare garden of Plants and Animals. They even have their own version of the TAAL lake.
Care to see a 200-year old tamarind tree?

If you love fishes and turtles, see their homes/hatchery. Learn and see hw KOI fishes are bred.

The garden of vegetables / plant nurseries are completed with herbal prescriptions .

The Insect room where they harvest honey,  beautiful butterflies fluttering everywhere .

A must see is the Dog and Cat Mansion!


Everybody knows BIORESEARCH. Not in the know? It's the petshop we love so dearly as a young 'un in the malls. Good that they diversified into really making their own place.

Happy to hear that the metro has another great palce to go to for  the family in the weekends with the kids.
Instead of the usual mall-walk, here's a nice nature-tripping outing with the cool fresh airy garden and wildlife.

Lost Eden is open from 9AM to 6PM, Monday to Sunday. Entrance fee is Php150 per head. As a nature enthusiast, I’d recommend checking out the place. It’s not just for kids, but also something that even adults can enjoy.


Lost Eden (Bio Research)

Sucat Road from Sucat Exit (near Kraft and Manila Memorial Park), ParaƱaque

Entrance Fee: P150.00 per person

Park Hours: 9AM – 6PM, Monday to Sunday

STILL HAPPY PINOYS

Yes we are a third world country. We are poor.


Yes we are a country who can't seem to make up its mind whether we move forward (or back?).

Yes we are cursed with strong typhoons forever.

Yes our greatest export are our people.

Yes we ourselves don't trust our own government.

But we are happy because ..... we choose to go beyond the ugly truths.

Where in the world would you see prisoners enjoying themselves in jail??!!!

Watch and enjoy!
