Boy Kanin: More Rice for the Right Price


Image credits: Boy Kanin Facebook Page
Giving more value per peso, Boy Kanin meals offer the favorite Filipino dishes topped on a lot of rice - and the rice is totally a lot! This food stall has the traditional food, beverage, and a unique wrap, and is truly one food stall that caters to our needs.

Filipinos do love to eat rice and typically order extra rice when they eat out. When one buys from Boy Kanin, this need not be done, as their rice meals has nearly two cups of rice, which maybe plain rice or their yellow rice which is quite flavorful. The large serving of rice does make the difference, and the proportion to the viand is just right.

Meals that Satisfy at Budget Prices

Most food stall have servings that are enough to stop the hunger or have items that are considered as snacks. Boy Kanin has meals, and their Filipino style burrito, which can be considered as a heavy snack.
Pinoy Burrito 

Bread wraps are quite popular nowadays. The Boy Kanin burrito has a soft bread wrap that holds flavorful rice, cheese, and meat. The meat is cut into small pieces. Unlike the Mexican burrito, this contains no beans. It tastes different also from that Mexican dish as it does not contain those kinds of spices. It is a comfort food as the cheese makes the rice stick together and adds a creaminess to the dish. It is so big, that I shared it with my daughter, and it is very filling. Unique, good, it hits the spot.

Here is the Pinoy Burrito unwrapped:


The Boy Kanin beverage is Salabat, which is ginger tea. This is served cold. There is no strong taste of ginger and it is refreshingly good. It is a surprisingly unlike any other ginger tea, and one won't even notice that they are drinking that popular Filipino beverage, I know this for a fact because after I drank a cup, I didn't even know it was made from ginger. I love this Salabat, and how I wish I could drink this every day, and maybe soon, if Boy Kanin can bottle this healthy Filipino drink.
If you want to eat more and get the full value of your money, then look for a Boy Kanin food stall.

Franchise opportunity is available.

Food and Drink Daily Decisions

Absorbtion is worth considering when it comes to health. What we eat and drink does go out after the digestion process, so what is left behind?

First, think about digestion. If this process does not have high performance levels, we must aid it by consuming what can aid it. For example, if the health concern is constipation, then fiber rich food such as oatmeal and eating certain fruits such as papaya can surely help. 

Next, think about absorption. When eating, chewing well breaks down the food for it to be easier to digest. Whatever goes in, goes through the process, and the blood stream absorbs what is there. Sounds simple, right? Let us investigate...

Food and drink is always a blessing, especially when offered.

Our choices are limited when we are out of the house. Daily decision making can be broken down. What is for breakfast, lunch, and dinner? What do you snack on? What beverages are consumed? It is not always possible to have that balanced meal, and delicious temptations are everywhere. Start off by simplifying the choices, saying no and knowing the limits of the intake.

- Fat. Pork has fat in the meat part, so it is not enough to remove the fat. Marbled beef has fat that cannot be taken out, and ground beef has at least 20 percent fat. Steak has visible fat that can be removed. Chicken has fat, and the healthies choice is the breast part. Fish can have fatty parts but this is healthy.

- Sugar. We all need sweetness daily, even if diabetic as blood sugar levels cannot be too low. There are fruits that we can consume and the occasional dessert is a treat, as totally depriving oneself may cause cravings. Dark chocolate is healthier, and fresh fruit is best.

- Calcium. Upon reading the new FDA guidelines that eggs
can be consumed daily, this changes the allowable intake. Drinking enough milk is good, though too much of butter is bad. Cheese overload? Healthy but anything is excess is not good.

With so many food and beverages to choose from, decisions can be done with each meal and snack, and what we drink such as the water intake, caffeine based drinks, and alcoholic beverages. Our bodies vary and for some, a little may be too much.

To focus on absorbption, what we ordinarily eat and drink might not be enough to bring the nutrients our body needs. Supplements are good, yet there are natural choices that are better. Our bodies liquid absorption rate is fast, bringing in refreshment, a full feeling, and the simplification of the digestive process. Shakes are great, for weight loss and weight gain, like those which are complete meal replacements such as Herbalife, which does contain a bevy of wonderful ingredients. Fresh fruit shakes may be made with a reduction or even omission of the sugar syrup. Vegetables can be made into a beverage. There are a lot of healthy beverages for sale, like pineapple juice, grape juice, and tomato juice. Just read the label.

When we were babies, we had a liquid diet. When we are old, it is a good idea to up our liquid intake, so the body can become healthier, and the absorption rate is fast, making us gain energy and making it easy for the digestive system.

Anxiety and How it Hurts

Dealing with anxiety means you can enjoy life and be productive. Anxiety, which means that there is a fear that is unfounded, that might be based on experience, makes a new situation one that is treated with more than caution, but the fear is the basis of how it is dealt with. Anxiety repeats in the mind, and after it does constantly repeat, it will cause overwhelming emotions. When the emotions take over, a panic attack may occur. The signs of a panic attack include change in breathing pattern, extreme adgitation, and basically, flying off the handle for no valid reason, just to differ this from temper and anger.

Anxiety hurts someone for no valid reason. For example, when entering a new relationship, what happened before with someone else is held against the new person. It can be in the back of the mind but it still affects the relationship. Anxiety hurts more than anythingbecause the fear takes over, making what can be done left undone, and destroying relationships when the panic attack happens.

Constant panic attacks bring about a disorder. This disorder may be treated with chill pills but it does not cure it. To get rid of panic attacks one has to deal with it.

Life has daily stressors. The inability to deal with such matters like a pending bill, even if there is money to pay it, without making it into a blown up issue; the seeking to disrupt the routine calm of an ordinary day with imaginary scenarios for attention; the pensive and disgruntled attitude of burden when there should be none; and the inability to let go of the past mistakes and forgive means that the anxious thoughts keep repeating in the mind.

Anxiety hurts, destroying relationships due to not being able to deal with a routine life without creating issues. There are days that all goes well, like when celebrating an occassion or durincg an out of town trip, but there are those ordinary days that should have no trouble, and a person with the disorder will seek to create an issue to make another person hassled. People with anxiety disorders, who have constant panic attacks, and who are no longer capable of being content with routine, will lash out in their imaginary hurt, not let go of the past, and are unwilling to move forward. In general, they are unproductive and have limited amount of friends, as the anxious mind seeks other anxious minds to talk endlessly about scenarios and their unforgiveness of other people.

A life riddled with issues is what a person will be subjected to when someone has an anxiety disorder. To deal with them with pity means that the emotional outburst will affect their peace, and the relationship will be unstable as their is that feeling of constntly walking on eggshells. Some do get well but for many, anxiety becomes a way of life, as the disruption makes them have that high, the attention, and then they get to control others by their wave of emotional outburst, based on their fear. A person with an anxiety disorder is dependent, as they cannot deal with the stressors of daily life, are  not trying to earn, becomes outright selfish when it comes to money and apparently does not care for anyone but themselves. New friendships are difficult to eatablish as they are treated with disdain, and one with a disorder has trust issues, as the past is always there, placing the fear.

Another example might be a person coming home late and the one with the disorder will start to create all sorts of scenarios in their head, such as that the other person might be lying, or maybe has gotten into an accident, and then pepper the one who was late with texts for them to go home, as there are trust issues and their anxious minds will not rest.

The causes of anxiety attacks are many. There are some who can get cured but there are those who do need to change their environment as their refusal to deal with the routine life that they have can be disruptive and hurt others. Living with a person who has an anxiety disorder makes practically each day one that has issues, be it with the silent treatment which is manipulative, the guilt trip, or the constant nit picking. Sometimes, the anxiety does make the person no longer functional and their is no normal day, so it might be best to let them be where they have their comfort zone, like with their friends, and cut off relationships because of the emotional, verbal, and maybe even physical abuse that one can suffer from when the disorder is so integrated, that person is no longer in control of their emotions.

The mind is a powerful thing but people who have overwhelming emotions do seek to destroy relationships, be it their own or others, because their living with the repeated thoughts make them unhappy. Pushing them to be independent in many ways may force them to fly, yet still consider that sometimes, it might not be an anxiety disorder that one might be dealing with, as there might be the fact that a person does not love, care and respect them, that is why daily life can be made miserable unless they get their way.

Anxiety hurts someone when it is the basis of the way they are dealt with. Focusing, and seeing the facts, to be right to a person, one may ask themselves if the pain that comes from the fear, was indeed inflicted by that person and if the trust issues do have basis.

A person that has a disorder may be that way for life and as all disorders, can get worse as they get older, especially if it is already integrated into their daily routine.

Tuloy sa Don Bosco: Charity Event of Herbalife

Keep children safe.

At Tuloy sa Don Bosco, during the Herbalife foundation donation, we were not allowed to take close up pictures of the children.

Some are victims of abuse, like the unspeakable kind, along with some that have other social services cases. A way to have a new life, short of giving them a new identity like a new name, this place provides more than protection, with food, clothing, shelter, and education. Children should be protected, indeed, giving them more than their basic needs for them to grow up independent and strong to face the challenges of the world.

The hurt of these kids was visible on some faces at the start of the program. If you know that a child was being abused, what would you do?

Circumstances bring about poor street children, and they do need help that is provided by the right places like Tuloy sa Don Bosco located at the entrance of San Jose Village, Alabang, just in front of the terminal area of ATC.

Children Need Help

Many big companies donate to charity because it is tax deductible. This is what made the dontation of Herbalife different. Since Tuloy sa Don Bosco cannot provide that kind of receipt right now, as they are short of social workers which is pegged at one for 20 children, and nuns and teachers and other professionals are not allowed to be placed in the role of a social worker, making it difficult for them to fulfill the red tape requirements of the government agency, whatever is given to them is truly a donation to charity.

Lemongrass House Dog Spa Spritzer


My daughter Allison and Biggie
No more smelly dogs! Get rid of doggie odor easily! Your canine friend can have a light scent that even perfumes the air. If your pooch is stinky, even just a little bit, or you want them to smell nice after they bathe, well, then, here is the solution for you!

Lemongrass House has a pet range that is made from only the finest natural ingredients. Include in their pet range is the Dog Spa Spritzer. This pet product is made with green tea extract, aloe vera infusion, and vitamin E and is package in a spray container.

When I sprayed it on one of my dogs, who goes around the yard the whole day and goes back into the house smelling like sunshine has made the unpleasant dog smell stick to her fur, the herbal infusion made an instant impact. Upon first spray, my dog turned around to sniff her body. Then I sprayed it again, and my Mom, who was watching TV, turned around and said, "That smells so good. What is that? You have a new perfume?" When I told her it was a dog spritzer, she said that it was good as the entire room smells good, too.

So I sprayed my other dog, also. The scent lingered in the air for over half an hour. The scent was strong on my pets for at a couple of hours. Their coat had a light, smooth feel in the areas that it was sprayed on. They seemed to be more relaxed after it was sprayed but that might have been because they got more pats and hugs from us, with compliments on how great they smell, yet I firmly believe that the aromatherapy properties of this product brought about this kind of positive result as I too enjoyed a relaxing feeling.

I spray my pets with Lemongrass House Dog Spa Spritzer often. I don't have to spray my pets daily, though before a visitor drops by, I do give them a spray or two. I have used this product on their dog bed as it does work as a deodorizer and on one of the couches that my pets frequently lie down on.

Our canine friend deserve natural products, especially for their grooming. It is safer for them and an eco-friendly choice. There are distinct benefits of using what is natural for your pets, and what I noted that more than just making them smell good, we love the way the scent makes the area smell good also.

Lemongrass House Dog Spa Spritzer provides a dog odor solution, it works as a deodorizer for areas that they sleep on, as a room freshener, and has aromatherapy benefits.

Lemongrass House is located at the ground floor of the Dusit Thani Hotel, Ayala Center, Makati.







Lemongrass House: Award Winning Spa and Body Products

The wonderful scents captured me, immobilized, as I stood in front of the Lemongrass House doors which is located at Dusit Thani Hotel in Makati. I just stood there to breathe the air, filled with delightfully light scents and felt the relaxing and rejuvenating benefits of aromatherapy in just a minute.

The scents were mixed but not overwhelming like other similar stores. It was light and made me feel so good, that when I was asked to come inside, I was eager to learn more, well, admittedly, it was more like wanting to step into a room with filled with air that is so good to breathe.

There were hundreds of items in this natural products store, and these are freshly-made with all-natural ingredients.

Aromatherapy and Natural Products

The art of aromatherapy has been around for centuries and using spa and body products made from natural things like lemongrass, aloe vera, jojoba, and more, does bring about results that more than just make one more beautiful but works as an aid in relaxation, rejuvenation, and healing.

Most of us are aware that aromatherapy products do have wondrous benefits. Choosing what is natural, making that decision daily in all the things that we use can greatly aid in reducing our carbon imprint. The advantages to using natural products are more than results, it is our way to make a difference in the world we live in, protecting our planet for our children's future.

Our bodies are natural. What touches it? What do you allow on it? Making the healthy choices when it comes to our food and beverage intake and making the natural choices to be in harmony with what we use at home, in our office, and in our facilities, is a way to bring about the wellness that we need, with ease.

You might not be aware of the fact the essential oil of lemongrass does have targeted benefits as has anti-microbial, fungicidal, bactericidal, antiseptic, analgesic, astringent, and anti-depressant properties, and that is what held me captive.

Allison Not Wearing The Special Colored Contact Lens
Changing the way the eyes look can be done nearly instantly. If you want to change color, if you want bigger looking eyes, your dream of having that blue, brown, and so many other colors can be done fast, while your eyes become alluringly larger looking.

To change the color of the eyes is as easy as wearing colored contact lens and yet - at Verona Optical the kind of lens make the pupils look larger.

My daughter, Allison, has slightly chinky eyes. She is quite fashionable and wanted new contact lenses to wear with that color change factor. What she is wearing in the first picture is Smokey Gray.

Click this to see the contact lens colors available at Verona Optical Pasong Tamo branch.

Here's another set of pictures to compare the way her eyes look.

 Request for a free eye check.
You'll be guided to the contact lens area.
Choose your colors.
Wait for a couple of minutes, and the contact lenses are ready!

What my daughter got was an in-depth consultation about her eyes and why her grade was so high. The shape of her eyeball is like a rugby ball, instead of being round like a ball. The consultation revealed that she could have corrective eyes surgery which is costly. Allison does like the fashion change option that these new contact lenses provides her.

Some people do not have to wear eyeglasses - and they can buy special colored contact lenses without grade.

Many of us place on makeup, putting on the mascara and contouring our eyelid to have that big eyes look. It can be done easily without much fuss, and it is so easy to change the color of your eyes to violet, hazel, blue, grey, or green when you go to Verona Optical, located at 2310 Pasong Tamo, Makati.

Arla Milk: Let in the Goodness


Arla milk gives you more than just good taste. It gives you all the full-hearty goodness every glass of milk has. Packed with vitamins to help you in every day life, it will give you strong bones and a delightful taste with every sip.

Arla milk comes in many options for your own personal choice whether it be for the thickness of full cream, skimmed milk for a lean tummy, or lactose free for those with sensitive stomachs, Arla has what you're looking for in milk. 

This dairy products brand has Organic Full Cream, Lactose Free, Full Cream, Low Fat, and Skimmed milk.

If you choose Arla skimmed milk, you're getting more than what you think. Most skimmed milk taste as though they were watered down and some even like perfume was in it. But, Arla's skimmed milk was smooth and just thick enough to make it perfect, with a slight, enjoyable sweetness.
Arla's full cream is to be loved, with its thick, creamy goodness - you can taste the quality of milk in every gulp. Paired with a cookie or used in iced coffee, terrific ways to further enjoy this full cream milk. 

Do you worry about where your dairy comes from? Well worry no more because Arla has organic full cream milk! Every carton of Arla promises all natural goodness and with organic you can enjoy the taste of your milk worry free.

Organic and Natural

Back to the good basics - that is what today's world is all about. With the toxins, stress, pollutants, and all other things that make us ill, the healthier option is to choose what is natural, and more than that, what is organic.

Organic milk has advantages. First, the cows have to graze, right? Well, if the milk is labeled organic, then what the cows eat is pesticide-free and what is used to fertilize it is organic. The cows are give less drug treatments, such as those reproductive hormone shots and antibiotics.

Choosing organic and natural products is good for our health - and we prevent the massive destruction that we are doing right now, jeopardizing our children's future, by adding so much synthetic products to the ground, water, and air, creating environmental pollutants. The reality is that we do need some synthetic products but in a man-made world, the intake of natural products for our bodies will bring about more good.

We all are aware of the harmful choices that we make. We must be eco-friendly to save the planet, so we say no to plastic things like straws, other non-biodegradable products, Styrofoam, and choose to recycle. Though we may not be able to live a purely organic and natural life like some people do, we can make minor decisions, daily, to change our food and beverage intake, as our body is natural, and we need to be as natural as possible.

Drink your milk, and make it Arla to let the goodness in.

Evian Natural Mineral Water: New Packaging

Evian is unbeatable. The water that you drink right now may be mineral, distilled, alkaline, or purified. Water is vital to life and vital to our health. We seek to go organic in what we eat, eliminating the bad such as soda if we want to adhere to a healthy lifestyle.

 And, what water do you drink?

There was a time that the taps in the Philippines gushed out drinking water. Now, with the dirt and other chemicals that go through our pipes, most people no longer drink tap water.

 Learn more about Evian by watching this video.




According to Wikipedia, "In 1789 during a walk, the Marquis of Lessert drank water from the Sainte Catherine spring on the land of a M. Cachat. The marquis, who was allegedly suffering from kidney and liver problems, claimed that the water from the spring cured his ailments. In 1859 the business became a public company as the "Société anonyme des eaux minérales de Cachat" and a year later it became French when Savoy was incorporated into France under the Treaty of Turin. The French Ministry of Health reauthorized the bottling of Cachat water on the recommendation of the Medicine Academy in 1878. In 1908 Evian water began to be sold in glass bottles manufactured by the glass factory Souchon-Neuvesel."




Evian New Packaging. From the original glass bottles in 1908, there has been changes in the way Evian has been bottled, of which now the bottles are recyclable. The latest bottle is streamlined and there are changes made in the logo, removing the pink background, and retaining the three French Alps on top of the word "Evian".

There was a promo that  that if you buy a bottle of Evian, you may win a trip to Japan, and this was the highlight of the launch of the "New Look" of Evian that was recently done at Landmark, Makati, and there was a virtual reality game. This I got to played and it was a shooting game. The "birds" were flying bottles of Evian. There was also a snow machine and that was also a lot of fun, I got "snowed" on.

Evian has a new look and it adds to the history of this natural spring water.

What are the changes that we need in our life for that "new look"? When you drink Evian, it is a way to "live young" and you are assured of the best kind of water.

So next time you drink a glass of water, why not take a few minutes to study it? And, it's a good idea to also drink Evian to taste and feel the thirst-quenching goodness, and continue to drink Evian to ensure better health by drinking the natural spring water that has been one of the most popular in the world for over a century.
