Chowking Halo-halo

Apr 23rd 2010Around the Metro & Family Matters & Food and Dining & Food Friday & Me & Philippines & Photos & Urban Living

Halo-halo, shaved ice with sweetened and cooked fruit toppings, topped with leche flan and/or ice cream, made even sweeter with sugar and milk. This is a Chowking Halo-halo.

This is what my youngest daughter and I shared before going home when she went with me to work.

I didn’t even think about the nuphedragen review I read 😉

I do not even want to think how much sugar there is in there, we just enjoyed the treat and the tongue freeze that this Chowking Halo-halo gave 😀

Beach Babes and Beach Bums

Apr 23rd 2010Philippines & Thoughts

Beach time means seeing beach babes and beach bums all in their glorious body form.

The babes keep hard at keeping fit through various ways: dieting, exercise, and more dieting. The bums on the other hand do a lot of fitness routines too. I hope they are not just people in good shape but with interesting things going on with the gray matter between their ears.

Do they watch documentaries? Do they read (ok, force factor reviews can qualify)? What kind of work do they do after the beach season? Are they interesting when they talk?

As one mom said about her daughter, “Pagandahan na lang” Roughly translated: Just notice how beautiful my daughter is. Or something like that. Huh?

iBlog6

Apr 22nd 2010Blogging101 & Business & Digital World & Philippines

I attended the iBlog6 last Friday and I met new blogger friends.

There were a lot of people from the advertising industry on the day I went because the first day dealt with the business side of blogging.

Of course, they were not selling custom travel mugs 😀

They were there to “pulse” the bloggers and to learn how to deal with bloggers or ok, the “new media” or “online media” to some in terms of business deals and events where their products and services are featured and bloggers are invited.

The venue was not filled but I still didn’t get a shirt from so many that were raffled off 🙁 It would have been nice to have a collection from iBlog3 till iBlog6.

Red Mango Frozen Yogurt

Red Mango Frozen Yogurt, TriNoma

I was reading about life insurance quotes last night that it slipped my mind to do Food Friday. So I’m doing this today, first thing after I wake up.

Red Mango Frozen Yogurt at TriNoma. Frozen Yogurt is an alternative way to beat the summer heat. This is better than ice cream because it is healthier and contains live bacteria that is good for the body.
