Ask for more

No leftovers, no sharing, it's time to tackle a lot of chicken wings. When you think about it, if you go to other famous chicken restos, you'll be able to get only two of large pieces and one rice at around 170 pesos. However, with the unlimited delight, it's your capacity to eat that makes it the better deal, anytime. At Winger Winger, it is only 250 pesos for unli chicken wings and unli rice! 

How many chicken wings can you eat? 

Go for it. 

It is not enough to find a great food promo. It is a must to get the best value for your hard-earned peso. Flavor, texture, and the fact that each chicken wing had been plucked neatly without leaving those fine feathers, you'll have to be the one to give up and say, "I can't eat another bite, anymore."

Be ready and be hungry when you get to Winger Winger.

LANA LANE CONDUCTS WORKSHOP FOR SAFE USE OF ESSENTIAL OILS

Paranaque, Philippines – 22 June 2019. Lana Lane conducted an Aromatherapy for School Children Workshop at The Work Pod, 2/F Lipams Building in BF Homes Paranaque. This aromatherapy and essential oil workshop designed for people interested in learning about the safe use of essential oils.

Lana Lane is a passion project aimed at providing affordable and effective essential oil blends as a complementary tool to one’s health arsenal. Now on its third installment, the company also conducts workshops as a source of scientifically sound information about essential oils. While the use of essential oils has enjoyed a threefold increase over the past three years, it also suffered from a proliferation of misinformation and consequent improper application.

Hands-on Workshop

“The moment I started using essential oils in 2017, I immediately fell in love because it reminds me of my Mom and Lola who used natural medicine in addressing common ailments - from oregano plant for cough, aloe vera for burns and so on. Where I grew up in a small community in Negros, applying oils was common practice. I named my company Lana because it is the Hiligaynon term for “oil,” and Lane to symbolize the path to natural wellness that they take us,” said Ernalou “Balot” Amechachura-Del Rosario, founder of Lana Lane.

“I soon discovered that not a lot of individuals, especially mothers who are working on a budget, can afford to buy expensive starter kits which can range from P7,000 to P10,000. They’ll likely end up using only a handful of these oils! With the innumerable quantity of information sources, many of which can be conflicting and biased toward brands, the process of learning about essential oils’ proper use can be a long, uphill climb when embarked alone. We are here to support users in their journey, by providing reliable information on the use of essential oils as well as offering essential oil blends that they can readily use, both of which they can be assured conforms to the strict safety standards set by the National Association of Holistic Aromatherapy (NAHA) and other professional aromatherapy organizations,” she added.

Balot Amechachura-Del Rosario is the woman behind Lana Lane. She is a graduate of Aromahead Institute of Essential Oil Studies and took certification classes from the Tisserand Institute and Franklin Institute of Wellness. She is one of the very few Filipino certified aromatherapists and is an international member and Level II Certified Professional Aromatherapist of the National Association of Holistic Aromatherapy.

Invitations By Ten: Office Launch at The Common Space, Pergola Mall

When every single detail is lovingly handcrafted, from the calligraphy to the colors, and the paper - you'll know that you have Invitations by Ten.

How I met the artist, Kristen Ramos (Ten)

At the coworking space that I go to in the Pergola Mall, BF Homes, Prnq, among the many who work online, there was this lady who was doing artwork, or so I thought, at first. She would have her materials on the table, and I, being a crafter who believes life is Pintersting, would sometimes just watch her from afar.

At that time, a little over a year ago, she would spend hours on her table, creating her work, and made thick, lovely, eco-friendly scrapbooks for sale. I would see her get clients and they would pour over the designs for their wedding invites, happily spending the time together, planning what to do. Ten also took the time to teach calligraphy. After a long while, when I saw that she had a bit of free time, I spoke to her and asked what she was making. She was making invitations and I saw that she was also making the envelopes. Oh, how I love seeing her work!

Office Launched

Her expanded office recently launched at The Common Space, Pergola Mall. It was Saturday, June 22, 2019 and they had a blessing with the family and staff attending. They have been preparing for this opening day by decorating their new office space and setting up their work tables. 

For a table at the coworking to larger office space, with a staff, and computers, and more things, her business is blossoming. There have been many changes and improvements in her business, such as  the invitations is the primary product, as there are many other items such as handmade paper and Bespoke envelopes. 

Family and friends:Ten is in the white shirt while Nikka is wearing blue. 

In that short period of time, Ten has devoted herself to her craft. She is an inspiration to me and should be also recognized by other crafters and artists. If you want invitations, and other paper creations...

CAPA Summit delegates immerse in Mactan Cebu heritage

CAPA LCC delegates immerse in the rich history of Cebu City visiting the famous landmarks of the destination

CEBU – Delegates of the CAPA Centre for Aviation Low-Cost Carriers (LCC) in North Asia Summit 2019 immersed in the rich heritage and culture of Mactan, Cebu as part of the pre-event tour.

Among the historical landmarks visited were the Magellan’s Cross, which serves as the reminder of the power and pervasiveness of the Catholic Church in the country, and the Basilica Minore del Sto. Niño, which is considered as one of the oldest churches in the Philippines built on the spot where the image of Sto. Niño was left behind.

The tour group also visited Fort San Pedro, the smallest and oldest triangular bastion, and the first Spanish fort established in the country. The fort now serves as a vestige of past colonial command.

The Heritage of Cebu Monument shows the symbolic events of the Cebu history back from the time of Rajah Humabon to the recent beatification of Cebuano martyr, Pedro Calungsod

Another landmark toured by the group was The Heritage of Cebu Monument, which is a tableau of sculptures made of concrete, bronze, brass, and steel showing symbolic events in the Cebu history as well as the Yap-Sandiego Ancestral House, which is the first Chinese House built outside of China constructed between 1675 and 1700.

The last stop of the tour was the Casa Gorordo, a historic house that offers an intimate glimpse of the Filipino society from the colonial period up to the outbreak of World War II. 

More than 260 senior executive and industry experts will convene from June 24-25 to discuss the key challenges and strategic issues of the LCCs industry in the region.

Tagaytay: A Tale of Trust Betrayed

Tagaytay provides the best view of the world’s smallest volcano. This volcano has the crater in the middle of the lake of the Taal. Local and foreign visitors visit Tagaytay which about 55 kilometers away from Manila, to stare in awe at Taal volcano, to enjoy the cool crisp air, and the hospitality of the people of Tagaytay.  

How a stranger would come to Tagaytay to stare at its beauty is probably one of the most unknown tales about Tagaytay and how the name was derived. Most of the names of the places in the Philippines were given because of what is distinct to the area, such as the small town of Balisong in Taal, which makes the unique knife that has a split handle that closes to cover the blade, and this can be opened to expose the blade with just a flick of the wrist.

The tale of how Tagaytay got its name is very interesting. Tagaytay can be broken down into 2 Filipino words which are “taga” meaning to hack with a sharp instrument and also is the name of a kind of large knife for use in the fields, and “Itay” which means father. Here’s the tale:

A young and beautiful woman who belonged to a wealthy Tagaytay family, met a good-looking, charming man at the ridge who was not from this place. He courted her and often visited her. One day, she had fallen in love with him, believing his flowery words - she had allowed him to kiss her.

After she was kissed, being pure, she asked him when he plans to make her his wife. The man scoffed and said that he had no plans to marry her. In her anger, she started running towards her home, shouting the words, “Itay, taga!” repeatedly over and over so that her father could hear her. "Taga" means to chop - specifically meaning to do so with a large knife, such as that for cutting wood or a butcher's cleaver.

The father did come out with his large knife, and so did some other people. The man saw what was happening, started running away to save his life from the angry mob. As they chased him, the young woman was crying in despair because she was considered as disgraced, and continued to scream, “Taga, Itay, taga…”  

The man was quick and was able to escape by running down the hill towards the lake. There were rocks that he had to clamber as that was the direction that he was cornered to run to. The people of the place stopped chasing him after he climbed the rocks, and just stood there. The reason why they no longer followed the man is that the rocky area was very dangerous, and he will not survive his escape and fall off the ridge.

Even during these modern times, there are still many Filipina women who save themselves for marriage, and the Filipino father is typically protective and does have a strong influence on who the daughter will marry.
Note: Tagaytay's Department of Tourism has a strict "Honesty Policy" for all establishments, facilities, and transportation operators. This city is also one of the cleanest in the Philippines and the local government has imposed a number of ordinances to make sure that the air quality is kept as pure as possible.

Author's note: I can write tales and stories, as I am the granddaughter of Jose Villa Panganiban, and he used to tell me so many about our country.

Hands n' Mind: A Dream Play Place Come True

Children learn as they play. In the world that we live in, we realize that as much as we wish to give them the best of everything, there are many things that we might not be able to afford and for practical reasons. You can give them their dream play place come true, and it is affordable, practical, and one of the best things you can do for them to play and learn.

Even if we can afford to buy them fabulous toys, there are new ones that come out often. Plus, the selection that we ideally should provide to them must be that which is safe and eco-friendly.

We all have busy days, be it that we are a stay-at-home parent or someone that has a 9 to 5 grind. There are many who work graveyard shift and struggle to wake up to spend quality time with our kids.

What can we do for our children so that they can play and learn?

There is a skills learning place that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Many children's schools like that for toddlers cost as much as a college education. This is the better option as though we want to send our little tikes to school, we know that it might be too early, and it is shocking to have to pay so much for an hour or two of learning - but at Hands n' Mind, it only cost less than 400 pesos for the whole day!

Place aside that budget for the quality time for them to learn. It'll give you a day off, knowing that your child is in safe hands.

It is a place that will address the needs of our children to play, a safe environment, with eco-friendly toys, the latest and the classics, and aid them in developing their skills. The skills that a child learns by playing include that of motor skills. They also learn how to role play.

If you have one child and even a bunch of them, they also must learn how to interact with their peers. It is also important that they have the proper behavior, such as learning how to share, be polite, and play together. Such social interaction will lay down the foundation for their future, as interpersonal skills are vital.

All these skills, and even more, such as their intellectual development, can be made even better with the right environment such as that of Hands n' Mind, a dream play place come true.
