Big Discounts

I asked the hubby to print out vouchers that I plan to use soon because these are expiring early next month.

Two coupons are for a foot/body massage while the other two are for a Japanese Restaurant. I still have another restaurant coupon I won in a raffle draw (yey!) and this needs to be used too.

I am glad we are able to save when we buy deals that interest us. These online discount deals  benefit us who are interested to “shop” and buy deals with the click of the mouse.  Two months ago we ordered music players and these were even delivered at home. (another yey!)

I am pretty sure those who like discount codes for Personal Creations will agree with me.I just wish we have these coupons where we live because I would definitely be shopping more for less.

I hope these online sites will be here for a bit longer so we consumers can save on purchases. As long as the deals are simple and attractive then these sites surely has a long way to go. For me, I ALWAYS read the fine print before clicking on the “buy” button.

Jollibee Hash Brown Burger

The kids are adventurous when trying new products and it is not a surprise that they wanted to try Jollibee  Hash Brown Burger. This is a burger patty with baked hash brown as buns. Interesting?

Jollibee Hash Brown Burger

Let’s see what the Hash Brown Burger is made of:

Two baked hash browns with a beef patty, cheese and ketchup in between. I took a wee bite and it felt heavy. Must be very filling, this one.

I’m sure all those with big appetite will like this one so much so they will order these burgers plus these desserts as special delivery for grandpa’s birthday

We Love Lemongrass

We have been using lemongrass in more ways than one.

For the kids, the product Stingless Citronella Oil to ward off the mosquitoes that may cause dengue.

For cooking, we love lemongrass in mussels, chicken tinola and Hainanese Chicken.

For drinks, I put lemongrass stalks in juices and even in water to make it more refreshing. When I have allergies, I drink a cup of warm water, steep a stalk or a little  bulb of lemongrass, a tablespoon of honey and a garlic slice in the water to relieve myself from all these uncomfortable feeling. It works like a miracle!

I still have a lot to read about the benefits of lemongrass on skin care if it works fine with skin conditions like the way psoriasis products or skin cleansing products work.

I know lemongrass can be used for pets with fleas and help sooth tired muscles.

We love lemongrass. Obvious, isn’t it?

Pursue Further Studies

The brother (like I have another one, I don’t) is currently taking his graduate studies. He told me that this summer, he needs to find a workplace where he can practice what he has learned and learn to do as well as delegate well Technical Recruiting Jobs. He is majoring in industrial psychology.

I once was a graduate school student, grappling with so many things to read with so little time. I studied while I was already teaching preschool.

It was not an easy task, juggling with doing lesson plans and doing a lot of research and writing a lot of papers. It was not easy then because we didn’t have the web to run to when researching nor was I able to afford a laptop at that time to be able to encode my research papers (yes, I mean it, lol)  whenever I have free time. It was my hubby who did that for me then 😀

To pursue further studies is good because one is given opportunities to make better choices, learn new things and have a network of professionals that they can work with.

To the students out there, although lessons are best learned outside the four walls of the classroom, it is also good to pursue further studies.
