Mojos and zesty garlic dip from Shakey’s.
An absolute favorite of the kids. I admit I like it too (with ketchup and chili sauce) if not for the “deep fried” part. Anything deep-fried is a no-no to me 🙁
This is a wonderful side dish as long as the slices are well done and crispy and not soggy.

Dirty air, among others, causes a lot of health problems.
I know because my son is having asthma attacks now and I am suffering from allergy right now, with my eyes all red and itchy too. Achoo! Excuse me.
Asthma season is in I think, since we have been having gray skies for days with drizzles now and then (yeah, I sound like a weather reporter).
A friend has been looking for eczema treatment because her condition has worsened after the holidays and two culprits would be because of the food served during Christmas season plus the pollens floating all around.
Dirty air, go away! Please.

To have a healthy baby is every mother’s wish. A baby’s health condition begins in the womb, where even before conception, a woman is able to take care of herself and be well enough and strong enough to conceive a child.
If a woman wants to conceive a child, then she should consider stopping smoking, drinking alcohol, having proper nutrition and not consider taking substances that tend to be abused.
Upon conception, the mother/would-be mother should take extra care of herself: going regularly to prenatal check-ups, taking lots of rest, eating healthy food, taking in prenatal vitamins, avoiding getting too stressed, basically maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

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.
