Greenwich Barkada: A Good Group


Are you part of the Greenwich Barkada? Want to share some fun - aside from pizza? There are many reason why you should be part of this group - and if you love Greenwich as much as we do, then that is the best one!

Greenwich has been a family favorite for many years - and the kids know that if they ask me for a pizza or lasagna - it's easy for me to say 'Yes' because of the affordable prices. My personal favorite is the Chicken a la King which I eat even for an afternoon snack.

I love joining contests and raffles on Facebook and Twitter, though I do get quite choosy of what exactly to join because I believe that only the ones given by reputable companies are worthwhile. I don't exactly remember how I stumbled upon the Greenwich Barkada contest but I am quite happy that I did!

American Idol season was on, and it was Jessica Sanchez battling it out. My daughter, Almond, had just enrolled for summer classes in Center for Pop - and I saw the tweet from Greenwich - it looked like the American Idol microphone that their judges was using. And, they were giving away around 30, if I remember correctly.


I showed the twitpic to Almond, and of course, she wanted it! So, to join the fun, and hopefully win the contest, I tweeted out her photo (sorry if it is not too clear) to Greenwich and said I wanted to win it for her! 




Here's another one - does the hat look familiar? 


The hat belongs to Gab Alipio of Urbandub and Franco band!


This is me with Gab Alipio - and a clear picture of his tattoos!

And, much to our delight, we WON one of the American Idol prizes!
But, along the way, someone tweeted me that it was a speaker, yet we didn't care!
It is a wonderful gift from Greenwich!


Here's what Almond has to say about the prize and Greenwich 

"When the delivery guy came with my American Idol speaker I was so happy. I thought it was a microphone at first, but then I saw it was a speaker. Its fun to pretend its a microphone while musics blasting out of the speaker itself. 

I choose Greenwich compared to the other restaurants because it always tastes good and its always great. I love eating your lasagna, pizza, everything! Greenwich has a comfortable eating atmosphere that I like."

Many of us Filipinos have think that 'barkada' is not a good thing. But, with the right barkada, the right friends, it is the best thing as there is something positive achieved and a lot of happy moments shared.



And, hopefully, Greenwich Barkada, in appreciation of her review, would give Almond and her best friend a special treat so that she can blog about it!

Of My Glad Kitchen And Things

Some of the most beloved memories are that of learning experiences. If you want to learn how to cook and bake, it starts off with observing the people who do so. This way, you pick up the techniques that come with years of experience.

One of the people who greatly contributed to my cooking and baking skills was my grandaunt, the late Adeliada Lopez Locsin Ledesma. I used to watch her in the kitchen and everything she did, in my opinion, was perfect.

That's because she would use a recipe, and if necessary, revise it a little to her satisfaction. And, to be able to cook, she has complete equipment, such as a Kitchen Aid mixer and Glad Kitchen products. What I learned from her was how to save money by planning meals, proper marketing, and wise shopping for quality products.

When she passed away, a few years ago, she had left behind many things that were still packed in their original box. Since she had no children, my grandmother, decided to give these to me as I and my children are the ones who cook and bake at a professional level. Included in these things was a kitchen organizer for supplies such as aluminium foil. I love it and placed it on top of one of my refrigerators.

My home has a Glad Kitchen, like my grandmother. As a loyal Glad Kitchen supplies user, I liked their Facebook page to learn more and get a lot of cooking and baking tips.

And, it was very nice to be able to win one of the Glad Kitchen gift packs. And, I think that everybody would love to see who it looks in the kitchen organizer that I got from my beloved grandaunt! It's overflowing!


Never compromise on quality and use only the best in kitchen supplies.
