Girls Rule: My Favorite Pastime

It's time to reveal my favorite pastime at GR hosted by none other than Niko of Niko's Blog :-)! So, here are few of my fave pastime.

1.) I'll say, cooking is my first pastime :-); no wonder why I gained weight and so is my husband. I love cooking and that is the reason why my son loves it when he sees me cooks. It's funny because he calls any meal I prepare a "dinner." He loves to sit and eat with us and that is g
ood because that is where we talk about our days :-)! Although I love to cook, am not an expert on it!

2.) Now, this is what almost everyone of us fave pastime, blogging :-)! It is obvious because as all of you know I maintain five blogs; it is hard to maintain them, but I sure love it! In blogging, I basically loves it because it allows me to share my thoughts, feelings, opinions and experiences on top of making lots of friends and learning from them.
2.) I love to read and that is one of my fave pastime when I don't feel like staying in front of the computer long. I have some fave magazines and books to read and most of them are self-improvement books, parenting, and how to manage finances. Church magazines and literature are on the lists, too.

4.) Filipino soap operas reminds me of home and so I watch T.V. while I blog :-); I also love to watch cooking shows, old movies, and funny shows like Ugly Betty, George Lopez, and more. Movies I watch are family oriented one; so we watch movies that my son watch.

5.) Last but not the least, shopping is an old time fave. I am glad shopping mall here are little bit far from where we live, otherwise you will find me there when I am not home :-)!

Well, these are all for now...what about you? Would you like to share yours? If so, then click the badge above to see more entries.

Great Deal on Kitchen Products!

Exactly a week from now, Thanksgiving is here. We will all going to be very busy especially for mother like me who is responsible on all the cooking and getting the house and kitchen ready for the family , visitors and friends. It can be a bit stressful if you didn't prepare everything including silverware and dinnerware like the of Soup Bowl Sets and so on. Anyway, talking about foods, I haven't tried cooking a turkey on a fryer because we don't have a fryer. I would really like to have one that I can use for special occasion such as Thanksgiving. I have been looking online and found an oilless turkey fryer! Yes, you can fry your turkey without using oil. Oh boy, this product is great especially if you are trying to cut back on saturated fats. Indeed, a healthy way to prepare/cook your turkey or even chicken. If you are in need of any kitchen products, you should visit Shop.com.


What a Relief!

Yesterday, we got a mail from the hospital I go to for treatment on my anemia, transplant center, and my OB-GYNE. The letter informed us that we owe them $5,ooo because the insurance didn't pay much for the treatment for the reason that it was a pre existing health problem. I was very upset because we let three months passed without insurance back in VA; thus making us responsible to pay if we can't produce a letter from our former health insurance. All in all we would need to pay $25,000! It is a big money and we don't have any idea where in the world we would get that amount of money! And so, I prayed not knowing what my husband was thinking. I asked God to help us find a way to pay that amount or at least something we can do to avoid paying that hospital bill legally. And guess what!? After I prayed, without waiting, my prayer was answered! My husband figured it out, that my anemia was not a pre existing health issue, therefore, we are not responsible for the hospital bills, but the health insurance instead! Thank goodness. Now, my husband just got off the phone and straightened it out with the health insurance and that we don't need to worry about it anymore.

Best Gift Cards


Buying gifts for someone who has everything like my in-laws can be very hard. Because of that, I always end up buying the favorite foods they like instead such as chocolates, peanut brittle, peppermint bark and the likes and that was fine with them. This year, I plan of giving them Gift Cards instead since they both like to go to the mall and buy stuffs. Normally, they don't buy things that are expensive even though they like it; and so gifts cards are the best choice of gifts for them. I really like that they can use these cards to shop even at the online store such as shop.com! Cool, isn't it?

Should I Go or Not?

Well, November is a busy month for us. Jacob has many school activities we need to attend to, on top of our routine appointments at the doctor's office, my volunteer job at Jake school, and the busyness of the coming Thanksgiving Day. Then, there is monthly visit with four women in our ward. I feel so tired just thinking about them. Now, I am torn between going or not going to the Multi-Cultural activity at school where aside from bringing a dessert from the Philippines, we also need to wear costumes, which we don't have any right now.

Air Filters

My husband is very particular when it comes to the air we breath inside the apartment we live. I can't blame him because my son has bad allergic reactions to dust. My son coughs as if he has an asthma. So, he makes sure that the air filters he buys to replace the air filters in our apartment while I help clean our place. We can take any risks when it comes to our son's health and well being.

Hair Loss Treatment

In the church where we belong, I noticed that most male members suffer from baldness and that includes my husband. I wonder why most hair loss problems occur more often on male than female person. My brother is losing hair as well. They said it is hereditary, but how about my brother. There is no bald on both side of my family! Now, when it to my father in-law and my husband, that is obviously on their genes.When I asked my cousin about hair loss treatment her husband used to have his hair grow back again; she told me about the miracle oil that she used to massage her husband’s scalp. So, I tried using that on my husband’s scalp, buy unfortunately, it didn’t work for him. Is there really an easy and effective way to treat this kind of problem? The answer is yes when I looked online.Because of the modern technology, and medical research, they discover that there is really a cure for male even female hair loss problem. And that is through hair restoration. To do that, you need to consult a physician and have your scalp be examined; in that case, they will know what causes your scalp to lose hair. Hair restoration is recommended based on the doctor’s finding. If you are interested on hair loss treatment, check their website now for more info.

Lasik Patient Advocacy

Many people including me prefer to wear contact lens over eyeglasses. I now wear eyeglasses because of my eye problem. I can't drive without it. But with it, I look like older than my age. It would be nice I can have Lasik done for my eyes. It would be very expensive but it is worth the money. So, I better make sure that our new health insurance would cover Lasik procedure. Anyway, if you consider Lasik, you better check usaeyes.org to get familiar wit eye Lasik and Lasik results. I read everything about eye Lasik on this website and I am convinced that Lasik surgery is the best choice over eyeglasses or contact lens. Patients testify that even complications happened after surgery, they would still recommend and would go through another more lasik surgery because of its great result.

Mommy Moments: Sporty Day

Here is my entry for this week's Mommy Moments hosted by Chris of Mommy Journey with the theme: Sporty Day! I have posted some of my son's photos taken with his fave sports as a kid. Now I don't really know yet what sports he would really love to play when he is old enough to play. As a mother, being so protective, I want the safest sport he could play if I were to choose; but you know, we can only support them with what they really in to, right?

Girls Talk: My Favorite Chocolate



Although my doctor advice me to go easy on sweets because I am diabetic, sometimes I couldn't resist to eat one. One of my favorite brand name chocolates is Hershey's Kisses with or without almond. But since the Dove came out on the market, it became my favorite. I like that it is so smooth like a silk.

Thank goodness that there are sugar free chocolates I can munch on when I crave for sweets like chocolates :-)! How about you? Do you have a favorite brand name chocolates to share with us? Then, share it with us by joining this meme!
