Have you tried Taco Pizza? The Taco Pizza in the pic below is a part of four flavored pizza from Burgoo.

Not exactly my favorite restaurant nor do I frequent the place,  it  just happened that I have several food photos from this place.

We love tacos. I remember making tacos before but I did not use tacos shells. I used tortilla chips instead.

Hmmm… I better look for a recipe again so we can have this on weekend.

Recipe-hunting would be more fun than reading about humidifier filters even if  the need for the latter is greater 😉

When we went window shopping last Saturday, the kids were laughing at a certain mannequin at one of the sports stores  we went to. My youngest daughter remarked that it was “ang laki ng muscles!” or “the muscles are big!” I looked at the guy mannequin and laughed too, for he looked like he had too much hgh supplements 😀

On second thought, the place was a sports store so a muscled mannequin wearing sports clothes is just fitting. In the clothes section, lady mannequins look like life-size barbie dolls and this does not represent the average woman’s size. Ahem, ahem.

I cringe when I see mannequins with big bosoms and ample hips. Do they really have to do that?

Saw a friend the other day and I was surprised at how much she lost weight. She talked about her quick weight loss program as well her strict  fitness regimen. Hmmm… it sure is fun to lose weight with buddies it seems.

I used to do morning walks/run two-three times a week but I have lost interest. I only got a play list to accompany me. I see a group of elders who also walk but since I do not know them I did not want to introduce myself to them so I could join them.

I told myself at the beginning of the year that I should step up the yoga that I have started last year but none of that happened. Yet.

At least the family and I do a  once a week walking/running habit. (like its enough huh?)

For now, I need to get up and do something about that slice of chocolate cake hubby and I shared a while ago 😀

Roses and Kisses Cake, a Red Ribbon Valentine’s Day Cake

Sugar roses (yes, these are edible!) and Hershey’s milk chocolate Kisses come together in a unique heart-shaped chocolate pound cake with chocolate fudge filling sprinkled with chocolate chips.

Hurry pre-order these Red Ribbon Roses and Kisses cakes.

These cakes will be made available on February 12 – 14, 2009. You can however pre-order beginning today until February 9, 2010 to have your loved one’s name on it.

Price: PhP330.00

A different idea: for those wanting to propose their love to their loved one can give this cake as a gift and a carrier of something else. Wouldn’t it be nice to see loose diamonds on a ring on top of the cake? 😀 Woot!

KFC Supreme Bowl Chinese Imperial

Hot rice, crunchy fried chicken with spicy-sweet sauce and eggplants on the side plus a glass of ice cold Coke, this for me is a good way to have a (hurried) lunch that feels a bit like home-cooking.

Someone I know recently underwent a colon cleansing treatment from a spa/therapy/treatment health and wellness center. I am not sure if she is taking colon cleansing pills but what I know of was she went through an oral cleansing regimen by ingesting food with lots of dietary fiber.

In our household we try to do some things differently by doing some changes in our food intake to make sure we have fiber rich food to help and digestion and fecal movement. Ewww? No, its not.

We have brown rice which is said to be rich in fiber. We have coffee that has green beans. We steer clear of food rich in animal fat. We have fish and white meat as part of the diet more than we have red meat. Processed food has no place in our meals and we try to avoid these as much as possible. Fruits and vegetables are regularly consumed.

These are just a few of the little steps to be done to ensure that health is given priority without denting the budget. It is doable.
