Won a Free Dog Costume for Dino Dog!

 Bailey, the Dino Dog

Bailey, a toy poodle, is a sun worshipper. She would step out daily and go tanning for an hour or so. When it is cold, I make my toy poodle wear dog clothes as these will keep her warm and cosy. 

I do join a lot of contests and love to join dog contest, and when I won at the PriceAngels website the amount of 10 dollars, it took a long time for me to decide what to buy with this coupon as there are hundreds of unique items in their store that has nearly everything under the sun such as cellphones, home decor, and those As Seen On TV products.

PriceAngels had a choice of dog clothes and though the bunny outfit was so cute, after much deliberation, my daughter and I decided to chose this dinosaur outfit made out of plush material. The great thing about this retail website is that it offers free shipping worldwide so I didn't have to pay anything extra for this purchase that cost around 9 dollars using the coupon that I won!

So we waited in anticipation of the new dog costume for our beloved pet. After nearly a month, which seems like forever when I am excited, I got a postal notice that there was a package ready to be picked up. I rushed to the postal office and yes, it was the dinosaur dog costume.

Bailey has worn this to turn into a dino dog quite frequently like when we went to Tagaytay to keep her warm during those cool nights and during a dog costume contest for Halloween last year at Alabang Town Center were we ended up getting a lot of freebies though we didn't win, it was such a fun event!

If you want dog clothes that make a difference, search online for such websites and for sure, you'll be able to buy something unique.

A Treasured Recipe Collection

More than cookbooks, I have inherited from my grandaunt, Adelaida Lopez Locsin Ledesma, her recipe collection. It was handed down to me when she got ill by my grandmother who took care of her as I was constantly with them through the years and my Lola Adeliada had no children.

Her recipes are written in our Assumption handwriting. There are other recipe cards include and cut out from magazines. These are stored in two index boxes, one of which was for desserts and the other for dishes like our award-winning Lumpiang Shanghai that won in Cook's Magazine before.

This recipe collection she had placed at her side table. It was like opening a treasure box, then and now, as the recipes that are part of this collection are tried and tested, and even has notes to reflect any changes and about the substitute ingredients and changes in procedure. If she would copy a recipe from a cookbook, it would indicate at the upper left hand corner the name of the cookbook, the author, and the page.

These recipes are top secret and I am only allowed to share these with my children, as per what my grandmother had told me to do, though I did make an exception with two recipes as my relative, Mike, yearned for his grandmother's, Encarnita Murphy (who was their sister), one of which is Arroz a la Valenciana that is presented as a roasted chicken stuffed with flavored rice and served on a bed of rice and the other one of chicken corn soup with sili leaves.

There is one recipe though that she never wrote down which I mastered by being always in her kitchen. The leche flan that can be made to be as big as a Selecta ice cream can is the most awesome one you will ever find. My girls and I know it by heart. 

As I go back to the food industry after concentrating for many years online to be more 'offline', I cherish and add to this treasured recipe collection of my grandaunt.

Colgate is the Filipino generic name for toothpaste. If one goes to a sari-sari store and asks for Colgate, the sales person would ask what brand. That is how popular Colgate is in the Philippines and even though there are a lot of other brands, Colgate is trusted.

In Search of the Perfect Gooey Chewy Brownie

There are two kinds of brownies which are cakey or fudgy which is also know as chewy.

Then, there is the gooey kind that oozes with goodness. As I go forth and search for the perfect gooey brownie, there have been a few batches made that are fails. Edible but not lovable, the first one that I made was a hit as what I did was adjust the baking time by lessening it.

This first method of reducing the baking time works. The way to do this with any ordinary brownie recipe is to bake it and check for doneness with a toothpick. Insert the toothpick at the edge and that can come out clean or with a few crumbs - and the middle part should still be rather wet so the toothpick won't come out clean.

The next method I read about was to add an extra egg. A brownie recipe typically has two eggs so you must make it 3. This was done is a Martha Stewart brownie recipe and she also used a recipe with less flour which is another method that I read about. I love Martha but I haven't tried this recipe yet as what I am looking for is a brownie that is oozing with goodness from the middle, with that decadent chocolate spilling out when sliced.

I did find a recipe that had condensed milk in the brownie and that looked absolutely wonderful yet it was topped with a whole load of chocolate chips that seems overwhelmingly sweet and that is not what I yearned for nor what is a must for me to sell as I don't want to make ordinary brownies as I desire awesome ones. yet for now, the first method which is to reduce the baking time does yield chewy, delicious brownies that are adored by everyone.

Online Promotion Boosts Your Business

I had promised my friend that when his restaurant opens, I can fill the place. It's vital to promote your business online as your product is not on display at the grocery shelves. There might be a lot of cars that pass by and people from across the street who look into your shop and then you wonder, why don't they stop?

How many ads do you have out in the neighborhood? Posters around the area, flyers, word-of-mouth but still the number of people who go into your store leaves much to be desired. After a hefty investment, you think that you can't spend anymore for promotion but know that if you are not out there online, there won't be much income from sales. So you struggle, create a Facebook page, and notice that hey, people do arrive but then only a few.

A professional internet marketer can help you boost your business and get long-term results.You get to tap the power of the internet to capture your target audience far and wide, not just in your immediate area where there are ads. You'll get to promote what you have, share special events, and then once it gets shared on the various social sites with the right description (not just yummy yummy must try), there will be results of walk-in customers who shall make it a point to flock to your place.

One thing to note that having delicious food or good prices or a great product doesn't mean it will sell. As the day goes by and those cars won't stop, you look at the empty parking spaces and the small amount of income. Then you think what you can do - and hey, a penny saved is a penny lost as without promotion, the maximum income potential of the place is not tapped. People won't just walk in unless you have a strong group of friends and even if you do have regulars, the new customers have to be found.

I have a proven track record of promoting events and ranking websites, blogging about the restaurant, and getting to share what the potential customers need to know for them to stop and enter the place.

For inquires, you may add send me an email at lucindadominguez@gmail.com

I guarantee results.

Make Money Online with Link Sharing

Online campaigns can boost up your earnings and it's so easy to do. You may have heard or been shared to a link from local sites such as 8share. I tried it and earned a little but did not pursue it though I have friends who make money there.

There's this international site that has the same style but then the earnings are a lot better. The minimum I have earned is 8 cents and then the max is 21 cents per click - and that's when someone clicks the link that I share to social networking site like Twitter.

This make money online with link sharing will request you to submit the URLs that you shared so they can check.

Throwback: M.Y. San Graham Sweet Treats Demo At Gourdo's

A throwback photo of our No-cook Food Demo 

Sponsored by M.Y. San Grahams at Gourdo's the Fort

Maxi, Timi, and Tyg

I have always been camera shy and my daughters, Timi and Maxi, took over the no-cook food demonstration to make M.Y. San Graham Cracker houses willingly. My nephew, Tyg, who is also a foodie, pitched in to help as there were a lot of kids in our M.Y. San Graham Crackers event that was held in Gourdo's that supplied not just the venue but the other ingredients the kids required such as icing and candies. This was a free event and there were lots of children who did hands-on to help make the M.Y. San Graham Cracker houses and the parents were very appreciative of this fun learning experience. 

It is important to teach kids how to cook and prepare their food.

As my kids were growing up and my nephews and nieces were frequently in our home, I never did worry about what they were going to eat. Putting aside the fact that there were maids to do the cooking for the meals, all the kids would go into the kitchen and prepare their own food. Maxi surprised me one day when I got home and she had made a pot of sinigang, saying, "Mama, I cooked dinner!" which she does until now.

Timi was making her own breakfast from the time she was grade one. I would wake up in the morning and see the frying pan, tong, and the plate, glass, and utensils she used in the sink. She typically cooks hotdogs for her breakfast. At an early age, after she watched Martha Stewart on TV, she got a whole chicken and butterflied it. She loves to cook and bake and aside from studying food trades, she had developed her skills by learning from cookbooks books and TV shows, and now she is part-owner of a restaurant in Teacher's Village.

If you like Japanese food and would like to enjoy affordable and delicious meals and try few unique dishes in an al fresco atmosphere,  go to Samu Eats located at Z Compound, 33 Malingap Street. Teachers Village, Diliman, Quezon City. It opens at 3 pm and closes at 10 pm. You will surely love the food.

Bioessence Review: Where Beauty Meets The Eye

The ravages of time leave its mark upon our face and bodies - and the good news is that those wrinkles, fine lines, and other imperfections may be erased by Bioessence.

Learn more about how you can be more beautiful, fast.

Bioessence has been around for nearly 2 decades. Celebrating their 17th year, this company has earned their excellent reputation in skin care by offering solutions for nearly every skin problem at affordable prices. And, if you compare their services, you would be delighted to discover that the price is very much lower than many other skin care centers in its class.

I would have spent most probably the rest of my lifetime never knowing that my skin problems would be solved with non-surgical methods if drinking coffee at Figaro, Pergola Mall, in BF Homes, didn't have an extra perk for a certain amount purchased, giving me Bioessence certificate that offered a choice of 3 services.

It was a Tuesday afternoon when I decide to wander into the Biossence BF Branch to get a facial. After filling up the standard form, the skin consultant brought me to the room, and she placed on the table an ultra-violet face scanner! Wow... it was amazing! This machine detects the skin problems scientifically - it's not a hit or miss- but a sophisticated assessment equipment that maps out the face for the skin consultant to know exactly what is wrong.

You have just got to visit any of their branches to try out ultra-violet face scanner during your 

free Bioessence skin consultation.

I have been to a lot of skin care centers before and have had a whole load of facials. So after the assessment was done, I decided to reschedule my facial for Thursday with the additional services of a diamond peel.

When I left Bioessence, I went to one of the other hangout places in Phase I, BF Homes. Much to my dismay, I ended up seeing a woman who was very abrasive in her attitude. She had on a ton of makeup daily because her skin was so awful with acne scars and fine lines, she has to cover it up. She said to me that I need to cut my hair rather than keep it tied up the Spanish style that I am used to. Argh! It was so irritating, as I just had so to hold my tongue as I wanted to tell her that instead of spending on makeup and going to the parlor, she has to get back to the basics and get good skin care.

I have good skin and I care for it so much, that I even studied cosmetology at TESDA. The makeup style nowadays is the natural look, wherein one uses BB creams and mineral makeup so the skin may shine through and breathe. The weather in the Philippines is one that makes it essential to have clear skin. And, not always may we wear makeup like when we are sleeping or at the beach, right?

I got my facial and diamond peel on Thursday, My skin shined with health and the glow of new skin revealed by the diamond peel. Unlike the other more costly diamond peel I had, Biossence was able to reduce the appearance of the dark circles under my eyes. 

And, look at the dead skin cells and what they got to extract! Yucky but who want those impurities on their face! 

I went back to that other coffee shop for that woman to see my beautiful clear and nearly wrinkle-free face. She stared at me astounded as I did not have a bit of makeup on.

A lot of other skin care centers ply you with advertising and tell you things like you will look 5 years younger. This is not the case with this company - but the results speak for themselves, as that day, as the woman was there, a male friend remarked that I look like I am 2 years younger with one diamond peel!

Look at the pretty ladies of Bioessence BF branch and see how their skin glows with health through gentle skin care.

If you want to be more beautiful, get down to the basics, and have healthy skin. Inquire today at any Bioessence branch and ask for a free skin consultation so that you will be assessed with the high-tech equipment that will show exactly what the problem is. 

I look forward to my next visit to this skin care clinic as I am also privileged enough to be one of the winners to their Meet and Greet event! I am so glad that I have Bioessence to care for me so I may have celebrity skin! 

A Berocca A Day Keeps Anxiety Attacks Away

In this hectic world, even staying home has daily stressors that may lead to anxiety, that ultimately - when left untreated, becomes an anxiety attack. These attacks, when happening frequently, becomes a panic disorder.

The signs that an anxiety attack is coming on are easily detected but one must have an awareness of what they are. These include lack of concentration, shortness of breath, a feeling of overwhelming sadness, and repetitive negative thoughts.

Anxiety can be cured. Anxiety isn't normal as worrying about what might happen, especially if these thoughts keep on repeating and it comes to a point where the fear of what is to come encompasses our lives, disrupts relationships, and makes us refuse to do things that others do... it is time to stop anxiety.

Here's a funny video of one of the ways to stop anxiety.

Half a lifetime ago, with the energy of youth, I wanted to be unstoppable. You might know the feeling - get to wake up early, tackle school, go out with friends to party all night, and go on without ever crashing from exhaustion.  Our group would compare the vitamins we take, and one day, in a drug store in Makati, I wandered in with my friend who wanted to buy Berocca.

After the virtues were extolled, I decided to buy one container that contained 10 large tablets that become an effervescent drink. I love watching the fizz transform! 

Here's my totally complete set of goodies that I won lately from the Berocca twitter promo. 

We have a saying that one should take Berocca to avoid getting berated. Berate meas that someone will rebuke or scold angrily and at length. Since we don't want to be that way, taking Berocca keeps our tongues in check as the attitude is that of no anxiety.

Anxiety attacks can be brought on by drinking caffeinated drinks like coffee and softdninks. The low happens after the boosting effect has gone - so one may end up drinking endless cups of coffee just to keep on being perked up.

Unlike Berocca, chocked full of minerals and stimulant-free, the power up is natural and lasts longer. When boost stays for a longer period of time because it make the body healthy and there is no 'let down' feeling.

Take a Berocca a day to keep the energy levels up. Be good to your body and have a healthy mind with a daily drink of Berocca.

Flirt Waxing Lounge - Pampering Beauty Services in the City

Flirt Waxing Lounge is a place to relax and enjoy being pampered. Located in 91 East Capitol Drive, Bo. Kapitolyo, Pasig, it might be a bit far for some of us but it is worth the trip.

I have read about their place because it was featured in Cosmopolitan and OK magazine, and was planning to go there one of these days so I found them on Facebook.

After liking their page, I decide to join their contest. Much to my surprise, I won! The Flirt Waxing Lounge package featured in this review is the one that I had won from their Facebook promo. This beauty package included waxing services, manicure and nail art, pedicure, foot spa, and a 30 minute foot massage.

I had to contact them to make reservations, and it was especially nice of them to say yes to allow the prize to be transferred to one of my daughters as I what I had won which I couldn't avail of because I was out of town, so as a thank you to them, we wrote this Flirt Waxing Lounge review.

Flirt Waxing Lounge Review

The place is spacious and the ambiance is good. Flirt Waxing Lounge was relaxing and hushed where you can have privacy. The place was purple, which made it relaxing. I was so glad that the management was so kind, that they said yes for me to exchange eyebrow and upper lip threading, was allowed to be changed for a bikini wax instead!

The Flirt Waxing Lounge staff were all nice and very good at their jobs. They all knew what they were supposed to do.

Their waxing area was private, and had a comfortable feel to it. The bikini wax that I availed of was painless, unlike all the others I had in other places - and because of this no-pain hair removal, I would definitely go back to get my waxing services there.

Flirt Waxing Lounge had long nice lounging couches, which made it more comfortable when I had my mani and pedi services. The footspa came with a cooling gel for moisturizer that stays on for at least 10 minutes and it was very invigorating, and the foot massage was one that I thoroughly enjoyed.

Flirt Waxing Lounge have a mini cafe that offers sandwiches, shakes and desserts, so that anytime you need to eat, there is food at a reasonable prices.

I love the place, the service, and their professionalism. I greatly recommend for anyone who want top-notch waxing services to make it a point to go to Flirt Waxing Lounge. ~M.P.D.~

Dad's EDSA Buffet: Filipino Restaurant Review

Dad's buffet is an eat-all-you can dream come true. There is nearly everything imaginable that the palate looks for, especially for the ones with more sophisticated taste. 

Parking is easy and there is valet parking available. The place has a hushed atmosphere like that of a hotel. Upon entering the front door, there is a small reception area, and another door to the left that leads to the main dining area. 

Dad's has many tables in their spacious main dining area. I am unsure of how many function rooms they have for private parties but the one I went to may easily accommodate 50 people. Unlike many Philippine restaurants, Dad's only offers their buffet and what I was informed as the grill-all-you-can that is located in the upper floor. The price for the buffet is at PHP 695 and the grill-all-you-can is slightly lower though I may not give specifics as I was unable to get more details as I was focused on the feast that was laid out. 

The buffet was expansive. From one wall to another wall, it was a display of mouth-watering dishes from Filipino specialties, barbecues, roasts, Spanish food, and Japanese. 

The center buffet tables where laden with the ingredients for a more than awesome halo-halo, a pasta area, and the sweet desert medley that was would make anyone break their diet.

The service was superb. And, the people who were portioning out the food would take extra effort to give a rundown of all that was laid out and make it a point to ask what part was preferred. And, I love the way their personnel aren't camera-shy.

Note: This review features only a few of the highlights as I was thoroughly enjoying the birthday celebration of my uncle that was held here.
