Evenings and early mornings are becoming cooler. The trees on the side of our home are becoming leafless as the days go by.

“Winter” has finally arrived.

Our “winter” in this part of the world is not snowy nor is it not even very cold. The temperature is just right, a bit chilly but not too cold. Though of course being used to hot-very hot daytime weather. people are becoming sick with colds, cough, asthma and allergies. I do get these headaches, runny nose and itchy eyes when I wake up.

I wonder how I and my son who has asthma would fare in places where there are four seasons.

We would like to experience real snow for sure, even if it means allergy attacks 😀

Is it time to examine our options then and look up mover NYC just in case?

Filipinos know this food just by its scent alone.

When I was cropping the photo, I asked my son if he knew what this food is. He said the name of a mall near where we live where I had this as well as the name of the dish, and he was right on both counts. Bangus Belly from Reyes Barbecue.

I like this better than other food eaten with rice, even before I had to lay off on meats, especially with the fat attached.

What would you put in the soy sauce? Calamansi juice? Chili?

I prefer this eaten with fresh raw tomatoes 😉

Nakakamay pa.

With Christmas around the corner, one of the foremost things in people’s list of to-do during these holidays would be parties and eating, after shopping.

I have something that is bugging me.

During parties, the main meals are fabulous yes, but if one is asked, its them dessert that makes the eating even more fun. Would one get that extra slice of cake? An extra brownie fudge? An extra scoop of ice cream? An extra topping?

How much could one indulge with that extra something?

Surely its not that bad at all considering its the time to be happy. But on the other hand, one should also think about the consequences about having something extra.

I’m sure, a lot of Hydroxycut reviews will be read after the season is over.

One word of caution though, let’s not over-indulge 😉

Yes, there is no stopping Christmas. Even the moms over at FilipinoMomBlog.com are excited about Christmas. Why? Click here to know.

At this time, everywhere one goes, one is reminded about the commercialism spirit of giving. Traffic has become worse in our little part of this world, even before the month ushered in. Shoppers have come to invade the malls, bargain shops and sales, like troops ready for battle.

This time of the year too is a good time to reap profits, especially for those engage in the merchandising business. Yes, business has seen better years and this is not one of those.

Incidentally, there are a lot of jobs in retail available in the market at this time, perfect opportunities for those who want to earn shopping money for the holidays.

I know. We can’t always feature food, we got to drink too, right?

So I am offering two choices for this FF post: Iced Tea or Coca Cola?

That is what we always have to decide on whenever we eat out. Iced tea or Coca cola?

Do these have the same amount of sugar? Even fruit juices served in restaurants are too sweet. Someone told me before that a bottle or a can of fruit juice has only a tablespoon of real fruit juice and the rest is just water and sugar. Ugh.

So would a glass of water be a better choice?
