Know More About Benzoyl Peroxide and Stop Acne

 

When fixing something we knew to be of problem, it is wise to know more about the problem but it's wiser to consider facts behind it's answer.

Agree?

Let's consider acne as a major beauty problem among many people, including my teen daughters and on occassional times mine too.  I can't agree any better when people say there are a lot of solutions to that, but can you really home in on a particular product that really works for you?

Desiderata Lounge: When Art Deco Interior and Sublime Menu Were Married

When I got an invite from EON Group for a Scotch Whisky appreciation, I apprehended at first.  But what caught my interest on attending was the venue were it was held.

Slappy Cakes with My Girls

When all else fails and then there's traffic...however, there are pancakes to get us through.

The car sat still on a heavy traffic one afternoon at Jupiter, Makati. A thought came to my mind, after seeing the kids dead bored and slowly transforming into two girly "grinches," I remembered when they were still little, the scent of pancakes being cooked would make their difficult situations into something worth undertaking after.  So after undergoing a series of payments for the bi-annual obligations of SSS, Philhealth, etc...we found ourselves (that's me, hubby and the two girls) on a traffic dead-end, thus, we thought of stopping over at SM Jazz.  

Why My Kitchen Is Never Without Kikkoman Soy Sauce (and Yours Shouldn't be Either)? + Beef Sukiyaki Recipe

Why My Kitchen Is Never Without Kikkoman Soy Sauce (and Yours Shouldn't be Either)? Let me now answer that question...I love using Kikkoman in my dishes that need soy sauce.

After attending two cooking workshops using Kikkoman Soy Sauce and Teriyaki sauce, I make sure that we always have a big bottle.  We are a family who consume a great deal on "sawsawan" or dipping sauce.  From using the regualr commercial soy sauce, I shifted to using Kikkoman.

Kikkoman's Oriental Journey Master Class

After attending Kikkoman Soy Sauce' first Oriental Cooking sesh at 25 Mushroom Kitchen, I make sure that we never run out of Japan's No. 1 soy sauce, Kikkoman, and its Teriyaki Sauce.

When you want authentic Japanese taste in your home, never settle for something less specially with how you season your dishes.  I want mine to be as natural as can be, so it's not harmful for my family's health.  I make sure that what I'm serving my husband and kids are top quality products made with passion and never compromising with tradition, after all, that's how we should savor life.

Cavite's Culinary Generals Preserve Regional History Through Cuisine

It has been more than a year since I last got acquainted with a group of Eat and Cheat, a group of chefs, farmers, and local food enthusiasts that focuses in developing recipes for cancer patients and health food advocates.  I was torn when I heard about the group bit the dust. But it sure paved a way for my colleagues getting a share of the limelight in their own terms.

As a point of fact, the Razorchefs led by Chef Chris Caraingan have earned more and more interesting projects, and one which all of us Filipnos should be truly proud of.

Baked Kofta with Shawarma Sauce

I've been having a lot of cravings for Middle Eastern and Mediterranean food lately after having to visit Sultan Grill and Socrates Secret.

I did give a personal commendation to the chef of Socrates Secret whom we found outside their kitchen taking a break after having to end our wonderful dinner at Paseo Santa Rosa.  

Summer Stroll at he Gourmand Market

Quoting from Emmet Fox: "It is the food which you furnish to your mind that determines the whole character of your life."

As a person who has a penchant for discovering outrageously yummy food, I always make sure that I live up to my standards, by it being healthy, artistically palatable, beknownst to have been prepared by gourmands that never undermines the value of good food.  Thus, I'm always on a look out for events bursting with spectacular ambiance and flavor.

THE GOURMAND MARKET happens to be on top of my foodie events list. 

Bag of Beans

My summer exhaustion turned to rational mania.   I have gotten as far as Tagaytay, just to follow my irresistible quest for an exquisite coffee experience.   From Calamba,  crossing Silang, all the way to the highlands of Tagaytay.

Going to Batangas, just along Aguinaldo Highway, past Mendez crossing is a city hide-away and a haven to coffee lovers and food writers like me.   Bag of Beans dishes up not only good tasting coffee but also pies and other specialties.   The aroma of coffee whiffed up with the cool breeze of Tagaytay is just the remedy for a stressed out woman like me.

Teriyaki Boy for Dana's 12th Birthday

After having the most enjoyable afternoon at Miracle Art and Star City, the whole fambam had dinner at Teriyaki Boy, which was walking distance to Star City.

The place holds dear to me as this was Bhogs and I had really known each other well on occasional early morning jogs.  I also remembered having to practice our dance routines with my high school classmates at the very ground where restaurants now were built.
