I know you've seen Iya Villania on TV endorsing the new Tanduay Ice. With her vibrant personality and beautiful face, surely many customers will be attracted to patronize the product that she is endorsing.

But, personally, I came to know Tanduay Ice thru my husband. He said it's the talk of town that Tanduay launches its new product which really captivates the taste buds of some in the National Capital Region. Bars in there serves that product. So we decided to have a taste of it not to be left out of the trend. 

Truly, Tanduay Ice has this distinct refreshingly sweet flavour that you'll be craving for more. The Tanduay Ice Alcomix is reasonably priced. So, you'll never worry to have more than a bottle. But, still don't forget to drink in moderation. Enjoy life, drink Tanduay Ice!!!

Pocoyo Fanatic

Whenever our son is awake we see to it that our television is on Playhouse Disney. And one of his favorite shows is Pocoyo. Pocoyo is a little boy dressed in blue outfit who loves to play with his animal friends.

We are really delighted by the smile on my son's face. He even dances on the songs on it. It's really a heart-warming scene to see how our son interacts with his environment.

Who says television is bad for little ones? Of course with proper guidance everything will be fine.

Thanks pocoyo for making my son giggle in joy...  : )

Natong a.k.a. Laing

“Natong” or “laing” is a well-known dish in Bicol Region (Philippines).  You are not a true Bikolano if you haven’t cooked or even tasted “natong”.  So as a wife, I have to learn how to cook “natong” in order to please the craving taste buds of my husband.  

It is very easy to cook “natong”.  All you need is to have the main ingredients which are “natong” or “gabi” leaves, be it dried or fresh, coconut milk and pork or shrimp (or combination of both).  But to make it tastier and richer, you can add up garlic, onion, ginger, salt, chili and other seasonings you desired to suit your taste.  Now, you are ready to cook.  First, boil coconut milk together with the pork or shrimp and other desired flavorings and seasonings in a frying pan, to bring out its distinctive tastes.  Then, at boiling point add up the “natong” or “gabi” leaves and let it cook at low fire until tender .  But, don’t forget the best tip “always smile while cooking” because, as they say, it somehow reflects on the taste.  That’s how our “natong” or “laing” is perfectly cooked.  Isn’t that easy?

Now it’s your turn to cook “natong” on your own. Good luck and enjoy cooking..   : )

Union of East & West

Wedding, a union of two hearts.

I never expected my sister, Charmaine, to be working and living in Netherlands, much more to be married to Marcel, a Dutch.  They have been married twice, one in Netherlands and recently here in the Philippines. Of course, I only witnessed the marriage here. Actually, me and my husband participated in the wedding preparation that’s why I’m really worried on the outcome of this celebration.

January 8, 2011 at Naga Metropolitan Cathedral, they exchanged vows for the second time.
